NimbostratusCreating and deleting users on 4.x BIGIP system via Icontrol
So i manage a few legacy 4.x BIGIP devices and I need to create and delete users on this system via Icontrol. I use Bigsuds and can confirm that Icontrol does work on it and I am able to query for information like version,product_info etc.My problem is that I am not sure which interfaces to connect to add and delete users.I have downloaded the 4.x IControl SDK but have not any progress in adding or deleting users.Can anybody with experience in this regard give me some clues on how to do this ?

It kind of looks like user management via iControl requires a much later version of BIG-IP software.

If I remember correctly, back in v4 users were added in the ITCMManagement.AuthorizationObjects interface. There's a add_key_value method can be used with passing in an ObjectDescriptor of type MGMT_USER. I no longer have access to a v4.6 system to test this on, but the methods are there...
