Hi Jason, Thanks very much! This worked for me. I assume that it is not possible to define the rules list as a parameter in the bigip.ltm.virtuals.virtual.create method.

Best Regards, Kurt

sure, you can do that as well:

x = b.tm.ltm.virtuals.virtual.create(
   name='testvip5', 
   partition='Common', 
   rules=['/Common/tcptest'], 
   profiles=['/Common/http'])

did you instantiate your BIG-IP to b or a different variable first?

from f5.bigip import ManagementRoot
b = ManagementRoot('x.x.x.x', 'admin', 'admin')

x = b.tm.ltm.virtuals.virtual.create(
   name='testvip5', 
   partition='Common', 
   rules=['/Common/tcptest'], 
   profiles=['/Common/http'])
