still getting the same error. Is there a way to check the dependencies for f5-sdk.
I followed this article while installing f5-sdk and suspecting may be there are depend packages which are not installed with "pip3 install f5-sdk".
I am using Centos* to install SDK and successfully able to SSH my LTM from Centos. LTM VM is connected to internet also.
Below are the steps which I followed:
1. Executed this command on Centos8 pip install f5-sdk
Got message successfully installed.
2. Excuted Python3 command and tried executed below commands:
>>> import requests
>>> requests.packages.urllib3.disable_warnings()
>>> from f5.bigip import ManagementRoot -----------------> after executing this command getting error which I has shared.
>>> # Basic Authentication
>>> b = ManagementRoot('ltm3.test.local', 'admin', 'admin')
>>> # Token Authentication
>>> b = ManagementRoot('ltm3.test.local', 'admin', 'admin', token=True)
>>> b.tmos_version
u'12.1.0'
3. I am able to ssh my F5 LTM from CentOS ----> ssh admin@192.168.70.14 ----> successfully logged in into the LTM
4. when I execute print(requests.get('https://ashi.com')) getting error related to SSL cert.
5. I have one user for LTM i.e. admin/admin which is having Administrator priviledges and access to advanced shell also.
6. LTM is connected to internet also.

"I disable the certificate security warnings on my test boxes, but the first two lines in the sample code below are not necessary if you are using valid certificates"
