Hi all, we just got out rSeries Hardware and I am now trying to add it as a provider to out Central Manager instance. Unfortunately I am always getting the following error Code when trying to con...
Error was caused by a Firewall Rule blocking the connection from CM to rSeries. Not the first thing I thought about with the error message above 😉

ModeratorHey mx9 ,
Regarding your question above, one of the community admin JRahm has written an article relating to this. and I think it is similar to what you're experiencing above.
The article I am referring to is Managing F5OS from Central Manager.
Have a look at the article and hopes it clears your issue.
Cheers,
Mo.
mx9Jason Rahm mentioned in his article that he had errors because the Cert of his rSeries was expired which mine isn’t.
But I still tried his ssl cnf to create a self signed cert which unfortunately also didn’t change my error message. I even tried multiple Variants:- localhost in CommonName & SAN DNS + IP ins SAN
- FQDN in CommonName & localhost in SAN DNS + IP ins SAN
- FQDN in CommonName & SAN DNS + IP in SAN
Also I looked at the mentioned Article for adding rSeries as a provider to CM:
https://clouddocs.f5.com/bigip-next/latest/use_cm/cm_add_providers_ve_velos_rseries.html
in his Post which lists a Method of connecting via a Post Request. The response should be a Status Code of 500 with a Certificate Fingerprint in the response, but there I also just get the same error as always.
