I think that's tmsh output which is slightly different than how the bigip_base.conf syntax looks. You should be able to set the config through bigpipe using syntax like this:

 

 

b self 192.168.44.11 {allow none}

 

b self 192.168.44.11 {allow default}

 

b self 192.168.44.11 {allow all}

 

 

This changes the config running in memory. You'd want to save the config to file using 'b base save'.

 

 

I haven't tested to see how to specify individual services, but I think it should be possible.

I copied and pasted my actual bigip_base.conf syntax.

 

 

If he's currently using allow default, he can't add or remove anything without changing that first. Not sure why, but I got an error when trying.
