Using Single Configuration File to Configure F5

I'm using the "tmsh load /sys config merge" CLI command to configure an F5 device. This command works great. However, for example, when it comes to configuring an LTM virtual server, by default, it creates a "Performance (Layer 4)" type of virtual server. I'd like for my SCF to configure a virtual server of type "Standar", however, I cannot find the property that will allow me to do this with an SCF. Is this possible? Does anyone know how I can accomplish this task? I'm performing a huge migration from A10 to F5 so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  • I found the answer to my question. I was missing the property "ip-protocol tcp". Once I added that, the virtual server type, was automatically set to "Standard", instead of "Performance (Layer 4)", which seems to be set by default, if nothing else is specified. I hope this helps someone in the future!
