We are using new relic tool to monitor F5. You can configure SNMP as mentioned below.
1.System ›› SNMP : Agent : Configuration >> add your network monitoring tool IP in client allow list 2. go to System ›› SNMP : Agent : Access (v1, v2c) > and update with type (IPV4) and community string with network monitoring tool IP with required access
Note: You need to allow F5 IP floating/self IP towards destination IP if any firewalls are present in the path. You need to use same community string on network monitoring server.
