Remote User Authentication (e.g. F5 admins) using Azure Active Directory

Hi!

Is there an option to integrate F5 to authenticate F5 admins, auditors, etc. with Azure Active Direcoty?

We need to have UserDB taken from there

This is the only article I found - but it talks about AD, not AAD

https://techdocs.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/manuals/product/tmos-implementations-12-1-0/28.html 

  • If you configure Microsoft AD DS then you can use LDAP calls to Microsoft AAD. LDAP has always been supported by F5 Networks for admin auth. So you would use that as normal. HOWEVER, you need to configure Microsoft AD DS.
