URI redirects using external files

Another option would be to use the Crontab on the BIG-IP to SCP the files to itself (self-update) on a given schedule (I would suggest SSH Keys...and I am also quite cautious about giving access to the devices, so I prefer that the devices themselves go fetch).

 

 

That would allow you to have a central location for pickup and negate your replication issues.

 

 

It could also allow you to advertise a replication schedule that the update any update requests could be published by.

 

 

The biggest problem that I see with this is validation. If an improperly formatted update file is implemented you could get some strange behavior.

 

 

Food for thought.
