Hi

I am also experimenting as you are.

I found the pdf file "Neutron_LBaaS_F5BigIP_39.pdf" which I downloaded from this site helpful along with the pdf called "F5 VEs_OpenStack Deployment Guide_05_11_15.pdf"

In my neutron.conf file on the network node

[DEFAULT]
...
...
service_plugins = router,neutron.services.loadbalancer.plugin.LoadBalancerPlugin,firewall

[service_providers]
service_provider = LOADBALANCER:F5:neutron.services.loadbalancer.drivers.f5.plugin_driver.F5PluginDriver:default

I am stuck a little further on than you are. Neutron is recognizing the plugin and loading it at which point it logs into the F5 and is giving errors because of properties that are needed in /etc/neutron/f5-bigip-lbaas-agent.ini

But this should get you a little closer.
