CirrusF5 Cloud license pool without BIG-IQ
Hi All,
We are planning to use cloud license pool. But doc says license pool we can use only through BIG-IQ.
We do not have any plans to use BIG-IQ can we use license pool without BIG-IQ using iControl REST API
from an internal management server which manages all the F5 configurations ?
Thanks

Hi Nazir,
There is BIG-IQ free of use for this. It is called License Manager and the main purpose of this is to manage license pools. Ask for a free license to your F5 representative and give it a try, I am using it and gives you great flexibility. You can attach and detach licenses to your virtual big-ips without request that to support.
Greetings,
Here's the article discussing license manager mentioned by Nazir:https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K77706009
