The bigip_add script is an interactive script that exchanges iquery SSL certificates with a remote BIG-IP system. The bigip_add script appends the local BIG-IP GTM system's SSL certificate to the remote BIG-IP system's list of authorized certificates (contained in the /config/big3d/client.crt file). The script then appends the remote BIG-IP system's iquery SSL certificate to the BIG-IP GTM system's local list of authenticated iquery SSL certificates (/config/gtm/server.crt). The bigip_add script uses the SSH protocol to exchange iquery SSL certificates with the remote BIG-IP system.
