BIG-IP Trial...where is APM

Hi there,

 

I just downloaded the BIG-IP 12 version with a trial license. Right now I am trying to publish a Sharepoint to the internet and this works, but now I want to incorporate the APM to force the BIG-IP to serve FBA to the client. I am told this could be done with APM, the trial description says that APM is included...when I go to Device Management it tells me the that APM is an active module...but...where do I find and configure it?

 

I can't seem to find it.

 

Regards, Chris

    If you have the trail license installed,

     

    check if the APM is among the active modules under (from GUI, system-->licenses) .

     

    If APM is an active module, then go to (from GUI, system-->resource provisioning) and look for "Access policy(APM)" under module and license status should say "licensed", then click "none" under provisioning and select "nominal".

     

    Once you do that, click "submit"

     

    A window will prompt saying "Reprovisioning may restart daemons or reboot the system, which causes lost connections. Are you sure you want to proceed?".

     

    If its production appliance you might want to do this after business hours.
