NimbostratusNew to f5 dev, where to start?
Not sure where exactly to start for what I'm looking for. I'm trying to get a list of vips, snaptool members and self ips, perferably via a python script. I'm not sure what section to even look in (task, tech, topic). Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Hi!
You could go with the new REST Api:

Or use a thirdparty lib for python:

iControl API reference can be found here:

If you'd rather stick with SOAP, here's a quick script that'll get you started with pulling data from the box: https://www.wuala.com/sjiveson/Public/f5-icontrol-python-test.py.py/?key=BlKE7DHaCzCL
