Kerberos support

Hi,

 

 

I apologize if this is not the correct place to post or not.

 

 

My colleague is trying to load balance Kerberos (1.6.x KDC) and we read about Kerberos Delegation. I am not sure what version of BigIP hardware and OS I need. I've tried to email pre-sales support but no response for a few days. I only have access to a limited number of LTM models which may be old and my OS is only 9.3 and 9.4.7

 

 

Does anyone have any recommendations?

 

 

Thanks in advance.

    Kerberos constrained delegation appeared first in 9.4.5 I believe. you should be OK with the 9.4.7, although you may need to purchase the ACA module for this (I'm not 100% sure).

     

     

    Note that this feature is more for authentication than LB though; that is, you delegate the auth out to the LTM from your KDC so it can grant access to resources.
