How do I add Client Authentication module license.

I am running tests to test TMSH commands for auth profile tacacs but I get an error

 

'01020036:3: The requested Authentication Profile (/Common/tacacs_auth_10429) was not found.'

 

I searched through the DevCentral and I found this article: https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K14768

 

so basically I have to add Client Authentication license to my bigip but I do not know how to add this license. Is there anyone who has an idea? Thanks.

    Hi Boli,

     

    This license/profile which you are talking about is not available anymore in LTM because now it's use via APM.

     

    LTM authentication profiles are legacy profiles working with ACA license (Advanced Client Authentication), which is no longer available now.

     

    You have to suscribe APM and use APM for your need.

     

    Hope it's clear. keep me update.

     

    Regards,

    Youssef is saying that Client Authentication (ACA) is no longer a supported product. It has been replaced by APM. The AUTH:: commands and events relate to this feature, so are no longer viable.
