GSM Key integration

Hey everyone, our SSL design is starting to become a bit of a headache in terms of key/cert management. I was wondering if there was any way to integrate the F5 with an HSM solution to allow all the management to be done outside of the F5? If not, are there plans to build this into a future release?

 

 

Thanks!

    Hi Eric,

     

     

    LTM cannot currently integrate with an external HSM. You could open a case with F5 Support to see if there is an existing request for this. If so, they can attach your case to the request. If not, they can create a request for you.

     

     

    You can centralize the cert/key management for multiple LTMs using enterprise manager. Or you could build your own app with the LTM management API, iControl.
