You'll likely want to create an external data group that is stored in a file on the file system (Look for the "type" field when creating a data group in the GUI). You can then use iControl to upload the files and ping the LTM to reload it into the current virtual servers configuration cache. You could also scp the file up if that works out better for you but you'll need to modify the external data groups configuration to trigger a reload by the LTM.
