pushing a new user from BigIQ to BigIPs
Hello, We support 48 virtual F5s as part of a pair of Viprions and were wondering if there's a way to push a new user from BigIQ, that manages these virtual F5s, to these F5s.. Thanks.

newbie Sadly you cannot create a user on the BIG-IQ and push it to the devices it manages. The only user modifications that you are capable of doing from the BIG-IQ to the BIG-IP is changing the default admin and root users password. You might be able to create a script that uses REST API and you feed it a list of devices to connect to and make the change. The following link has the command to create a new user on the BIG-IP using REST API under the section "Creating a new BIG-IP system user account" about halfway down the page.
