Yes, previously you need to have installed a perl interpreter.
REF - https://learn.perl.org/installing/
After that, you need to export the netscaler configuration to a text file.
Then you can run the script using the netscaler text file like this.
# perl nsv8_to_f5.pl netscalerconfigfile /var/tmp/bigipoutputfileThis is a pretty old script, but that's the only resource related in the community. I would try it before exploring other possibilities.
KR,
Dario.

The basic syntax used by Netscaler v8.x is quite different from v11.x. In 8.x you will see probe, rserver, serverfarm, etc. In 11.x, configs have action prefixes and terms like monitor, server, service, vserver, etc. The script will never work for v11.x.
