Defference between 5050s & 5250v

Hi

 

please tell me the differences between f5 BIG-IP 5250v and 5050v chassis. How should I decide between them? Is this model are in same chassis? The chassis of a 5250v is always of a 5050s and additional features of 5250v as compared to 5050s are unlocked via a soft license upgrade ?

 

Regards Bilash

    Bilash, yes same chassis but performance upgrade by buying a license to upgrade from 5050s to 5250v.

     

    Hope this helps,

  • Dear,

     

    Once you activate the license you can always check the product information by going to the below website and entering the serial numbers.

    You will receive an email with exact product information and also the warranty info including any service contracts you purchased.

     

    Regards,
