NimbostratusI was thinking about this as I am in the same boat as far as this potentially becoming a requirement. I think an easy way to do this would be to set up a VS for the F5 management itself and cac-enable that VS using LTM or APM, whichever flavor you choose. Then you still have Radius or username/password as a backup option but never have to use the management IP again except in an emergency when, say, OCSP is down or something.
This works all the way up to version 12.0. However, in the event that TMM is down, you will no longer be able to access your management interface. Otherwise, this works. This issue is currently being worked on to find a resolution.
