Does F5 Big IP supports XML API for interacting with the device

Thanks for the update. Its looks good for my requirement. And having a clarification on the icontrol.jar. If i have icontrol.jar with version 11.0, will it have the compatibility to work in all the version of BIG IP series devices(like backward compatibility) or do i need to have the jar respective of my F5 BIG IP device version.

Note: I am having different version of BIG IP F5 devices and wanted to have single point of logic should work across all the flavors.

Thanks in advance and your help is really appriciated.
