Manage Big-IQ

If you manage Big IP to Big IQ, what resources does it use up? and TMM or Control plane?

Hi Margvin,

 

Big-IP will dedicate odd CPUs to process all the metrics and send them to Big-IQ, by another way, Big-IQ has two types of deployment:

  1. discovery devices by a dedicated Self-IP network, in this case, it avoids the control plane.
  2. discovery devices by mgmt IP network, the control plane is used in this case to receive configuration from Big-IQ.

Note: remember to provision AVR to send all statistics metrics to Big-IQ.

Regards,

SSD.
