Question/Problem Description:

Enterprise Plus Subscription contains WAF, yet within the Virtual Service configuration, there is nowhere to enable nor configure it.
Steps to Reproduce:  
Error Message:  
Defect Number:  
Enhancement Number:  
Cause:
  • The Service Type (found at the top of the VIP configuration in the Basic Properties Section, must be set to HTTP-HTTP/2HTTPS)
  • service_type.png
  • If the Service is on port 443, SSL Acceleration must be enabled

  • If the subscription was upgraded from a lower tier to Enterprise Plus, a reboot is needed with the license update to make the new features available
Resolution:

Enabled SSL Acceleration and re-encryption and WAF then became available.
