The config file is located in /config/bigip.conf. You can use a cat command and open this file. Also if you need to see a specific virtual server/pool/node/SNAT config then via tmsh you can use the 'list' and specify the name that you are looking for...
list /ltm virtual vs_1 list /ltm pool my_pool
ect...Is this what you are looking for?

ok thats helpful. I was looking for the config file like in Cisco, something that I would be able to gather the config from.
How do I get to /config/bigip.conf directy to view the file?
My command prompt is:
root@(Floor3)(cfg-sync In Sync)(Active)(/)(tmos)

Just type quit and that would get you out of tmos...from here its business as usual...cat /config/bigip.conf | more

Drop to bash shell first (run util bash), then you can view the file (less /config/bigip.conf)

e.g.
root@(ve11a)(cfg-sync In Sync)(Active)(/)(tmos) quit [root@ve11a:Active:In Sync] config [root@ve11a:Active:In Sync] config ls -l /config/bigip.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10788 May 17 07:15 /config/bigip.conf [root@ve11a:Active:In Sync] config - Syed_Irfan_1953

Hello,
-
You are currently in tmos. In order to get into the bash mode type the command "run util bash", this will take you to the bash mode.
-
Check the current location you are in by typing the command "pwd".
- To view the config file one page at a time, enter the command "less /config/bigip.conf".
- You can use space to go to the next page of the config file.
- if you looking for something specifically type "/" followed by the whatever you are looking and hit the enter key.
for. eg : /http-xforward
-
To exit, press the "q" key
-
if you want to look for the completed configuration at a single go, use the command "cat /config/bigip.conf".
Please revert for any more questions.
