As Richard suggested, an external data group file would work nicely for your scenario. More generally, you can also use the merge option to copy a config snippet to a BIG-IP and merge it into the existing config:

 

 

https://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/tmsh.BigpipeMappings.ashx

 

 

bigpipe: b merge /path/to/file.txt

 

tmsh: tmsh load /sys config file /path/to/file.txt merge

 

 

Merge a file into the BIG-IP configuration. Added in v11. In v10, use bigpipe
