iREST access to rules within a LTM policy
Is there a way to access attributes/settings of a rule within an LTM policy using iREST? (Ver 11.5.7) The goal is to use iREST to determine if a ViP has a security policy applied to it.
More generally, is there a guide to f5 objects accessible through iREST?

Well, I didn't use REST, I used the F5 API. I'm just learning Python myself so this is probably spaghetti but hopefully this will help get you towards the REST syntax:
#!/usr/bin/env python
def get_collection(container):
collection = container.get_collection()
return collection
def load_container(container,element):
collection = container.load(name=element)
return collection
from f5.bigip import ManagementRoot
import sys
# Define unique variables
user = 'USERNAME'
password = 'P@ssw0rd'
f5_ip = '192.168.127.127'
# Connect to the F5
mgmt = ManagementRoot(f5_ip, user, password)
ltm = mgmt.tm.ltm
for virtuals in get_collection(ltm.virtuals):
partition = ('/' + virtuals.partition + '/')
print ('VIP Name: {}'.format(virtuals.name))
if hasattr(virtuals,'description'):
description = virtuals.description.lower()
IPPORT = (virtuals.destination).replace(partition,'').split(':')
#IPPORT =
print (' VIP Address: {}'.format(IPPORT[0]))
print (' Listening Port: {}'.format(IPPORT[1]))
# SHOW ASSOCIATED PROFIES
print (' Profiles:')
#for prof in get_collection(virts.profiles_s):
for prof in get_collection(virtuals.profiles_s):
#Can be filtered using: if <value> in prof.name:
print (" {}".format(prof.name))
