b class datagroup-name all - removes existing ip addresses

Hello All,

I am working with BigIP LTM VE Trial edition 10.1.0. Datagroup caled DG-TEST has a few IP addresses like below:

ltm data-group DG-TEST {

records {
    10.10.10.10/32 { }
    20.20.20.20/32 { }
    30.30.30.30/32 { }
}
type ip

}

If I type the folowing I get the info about the class:

b class DG-TEST show all

CLASS lstymqmiapub | TYPE ip 3 items

However, If I type the following

b class DG-TEST all

All existing IP addresses are removed and replaced as following:

class DG-TEST {

network default inet6

}

Is this the expected behaviour?

Apologies if this has already been asked.

Regards, Os

  • Its expected behavior of LTM. If you wanted to see the existing object in class. Then use below command.

    b class DG-TEST list
    --> List the object in specific class.

    b class DG-TEST show all
    --> Return all object in specific class

    b class DG-TEST all
    --> Return Network default.

    Yeah. I've come a cropper on this one before.

     

    I logged a call about it as IMO the command is a bit dangerous. Especially considering ANYONE with CLI access can accidentally do this. But was told it's by design. I did raise an RFE IIRC. But looks like it was never looked at.
