Get list of licensed modules? (compression, ramcache, etc)

How do I get a list of the licensed modules on a BIG-IP? I'm writing an app that needs to know whether to use compression or ramcache features by querying the BIG-IP to see if those features are licensed and enabled.

 

 

Thanks...

    You'll want to look at the System::SystemInfo::get_product_information() method. It reuturns various information about the system including licensed product_features. The product_features are just returned as a list of user interface strings so you'll have to do a string comparison. You'll have to verify this with your platform, but here's what I'm showing for my system:

     

     

    Compression: "HTTP Compression: Unlimited"

     

    RAM Cache: "RAM Cache"

     

     

    The "Unlimited" is probably going to be whatever your compression limit is licensed at.
