According to http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/13000/300/sol13366.html and http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/13000/400/sol13458.html there are only 8 months left to develop software for IE11 because after 01. October 2014 there is the "End of New Software Support (EoNSS)".
Is that assumption correct?
Cheers Thomas
- KRR_arg_50293Feb 04, 2014NimbostratusYes, that assumption is correct. It might be that in this extraordinary case, F5 has shoved development under the carpet due to the short time frame for which F5's Firepass is relevant and is postponing it until they can publicly announce that due to EoNSS IE11 support will not be developed. This sounds very far-fetched - even to me(!) - but unfortunately my experiences and feelings of talking to F5 so far supports this. The IE11/Win8.1 "Compatibility Mode" workaround option is still working fairly well for myself and all of my customers. I have even been able to fully install the client (read: ActiveX plug-in) to every newly installed PC I have come across, so I do not consider this a major issue anymore, just extremely time consuming and therefore unnecessarily annoying.
