What is the first step an administrator must perform to license a new BIG-IP system?

Generate a license file on the BIG-IP and email it to F5 support

Enter the license key directly into the BIG-IP configuration utility

Download a trial license from the F5 website and install it via tmsh

Obtain a dossier from the BIG-IP and submit it to F5 to receive a license file

What is the result of modifying a BIG-IP license to add a feature?

The existing configuration is erased to accommodate the new feature

The license file is updated and the new feature becomes available after provisioning

The new feature is immediately available without any further action

The BIG-IP automatically restarts to apply the new license

A company has a BIG-IP with a perpetual license for LTM. They want to add a subscription-based module for a limited time. What is the correct way to handle this?

Add the subscription module to the existing license, which will create a combined license with different expiry dates for each module.

Replace the perpetual license with the subscription license, as they cannot coexist.

Wait for the perpetual license to expire before adding the subscription module.

Purchase a separate BIG-IP for the subscription module, as it cannot be added to an existing system.

How does an administrator add a new module, such as APM, to an existing BIG-IP license?

Reboot the BIG-IP after installing the module package

Enable the module directly in the Configuration utility without a license change

Download a new license file from F5 and apply it to the BIG-IP

Use tmsh to activate the module by entering a feature key

In which scenario would an administrator need to reactivate a BIG-IP license?

When replacing a failed hardware component such as a motherboard

When adding a new virtual server to the configuration

When changing the management IP address

When upgrading the BIG-IP software version
