AS3 is focused on L4-L7 Services. It won't give you a declarative interface to handle this kind of component. We have another extension for this kind of use case called Declarative Onboarding (aka DO). It provides a declarative API to be able to fully onboard a newly provisioned device (login, vlan, self, routes, ntp, dns, clustering setup, ...)
it is available here: https://github.com/F5Networks/f5-declarative-onboarding
Documentation is here: https://clouddocs.f5.com/products/extensions/f5-declarative-onboarding/latest/ with an example: https://clouddocs.f5.com/products/extensions/f5-declarative-onboarding/latest/examples.html
