    @f5_rock - What is the password in this case. You do not get a prompt to create a password in case the access to LTM has been configured for authentication through Tacacs. So, I think, like in cisco, once the device is on Tacacs, you cannot create a local account.

    There is no option to created local user if third party authentication has created(i.e TACACS, RADIUS). Create user in AD/TACACS & add user to LB group.
