When we login to F5, 'Help' tab shows details about the available option. Give API or CLI command to search the same in CLI. Ex: Once i open Virtual servers in Local Traffic - Virtual servers -- Help or About section should have CLI command to check the same in CLI. Like ''# list ltm virtual VirstialServer1 '' --> So we get expertise on CLI and create plan to configure in CLI.

I generated CSRs using the web gui to send to our CA, to replace new device certs. The new certs came back without the client-auth Extended Key Usage attribute set. The documentation is quite clear that it must be, so it's my fault for not communicating that to the CA. But if the CSR had included that EKU in the Requested Extensions, then I wouldn't have had to remember (at least, if my CA honored the request...)

Pls update and note ID776393 that after these commands
"tmsh modify sys db restjavad.useextramb value true
tmsh modify sys db provision.extramb value 2000
bigstart restart restjavad" some important services will be restart so, "traffic would be interrupted or failover".
Thnx.

What I've noticed is that when I access to
https://community.f5.com/
Without any previous access to an F5 site (let's say, for example using incognito mode), the page is getting stuck loading indefinitely waiting to provide your cookie preferences.

Hi, I wanna know if there is any impact from changing the F5 self-signed device certificate to a CA-signed one - Is there any reboot? - any disruption connection will affect the LTM services? - Does any client certificate need to be applied? - any out-of-sync issue ? kindly note I found many sites describing the way to do it, but none describes the impacts and what is required to prepare before the change. Thanks,

This has happened to me twice now, and it makes me not want to use this site. On the mobile site, since I usually try to do all of my work via the phone or an ipad, it strips everything after a mention (when referencing a user). I have had two complex and thoughful responses stripped when the classic HTML issue or whatever the hell I get. Why cant we just use CDATA fields to encapsulate some of this stuff and sanitize it better when it is referenced for display on the site? The parser is truly garbage.

When i get a link that a thread has been updated it would be nice that the new posts in that thread have a soft background color to differentiate them from all the existing posts. This is only visible to me and once I have viewed it the first time it would not appear again as I have displayed the thread already.

Hello Everyone, Sometimes we need to save our configuration after big modifications to a stable point. I know that we can take a user configuraton set "UCS" to save our Configuration with the new modification , But what about defining a new object or a stable point which I can save the new configuartion to it after making sure that all services and the Device work well without issues. I suggest this because in busy networks such as ISPs , The governments or Banks ..etc which have several numbers of F5 appliances with multiple administarors to configure these appliances and maintain a huge number of Critical services. So I suggest to define a " Rescue point " and save the new configuration to after validation that all services work well after new changes in configuration files or any change to F5 appliance at all , this will enable us to rollback any new changes that impacted running services or F5 resources .... etc. To show my suggestion more : - when we need to create UCS file We issue ( #tmsh save sys ucs UCS_NAME.ucs ) so similarly we can issue new command to define a " Rescue point " Like this (#tmsh save sys Rescue ) and issue such this command ( #tmsh load sys Rescue ) to rollback again to Rescue point which is a validated stable point for F5 system at all. Briefly : Defining a stable point we can call it the " Rescue point " which contains a Good status for configuration and running services , and Returning back to it again if anyone made a change that impacted the running services.
Also If a Compare option added to F5 to see the difference between " Rescue Configurations " and " New added Configuration " to see exactly what added to F5 Configuration made this impact. Also this will help to restore impacted services quickly without the need of Loading UCS files. This suggestion not a replacement for UCS files , it’s only a light way can help for quick services Restoration , facilitating troublshooting or to be another option for Administrators to Backup their valid changes.

So I have signed up to the daily digest emails for some of the forums and groups here.
That gets me daily emails like this
DevCentral Community: Daily Digest

Re: irule or policy to match url and then update pool members port
Then i see the whole content and then the next and next in the order they were posted. Which means content is mixed if two posts are discussed at the same time.
This becomes quite a long email and depending on the replies tricky to follow.
On another similar website I get a similar daily email that starts like this:
Discussions started 3 days ago, name1 (1 reply) Product integration with Securly MDM external link to thread view 1. I have not seen such an integration. You may ask... name3
started 8 days ago, name2 (11 replies) Product - Connecting from VPN with RDP external link to thread view 2. Did you see this video < name3 3. Yes, I have just seen the first video you... name2 4. any switching of VLANs breaks things like login... name4
So not the full content yet, but a summary per subject with the replies in order and quick first line. After that it will list the full posts, but this first section often is enough to see what I want to look into further. Also makes it easy to spot posts without replies.
For the people that use the Daily Digest (are there any more than me?), is this something you would like to see?

Hi DevCentral Team,
how about adding a "Copy to Clipboard" button to every code snippets posted on DevCentral. Its fancy to have such a button and would make it much easier to handle rather long code snippets...
"One Click" vs. "Selecting text while scrolling to the buttom and then hopefully stopping at the right moment... duh... rinse repeat..."
Cheers, Kai

We have roughly a dozen or more F5 appliances and numberous tenants. We were hoping to utilize BigIQ to manage everything from a single pane of glass, but have run into a feature option where we aren't able to add nodes via FQDN. Could you please add that as an option in the next update?

Hi DevCentral Team,
the usable width of DevCentral content is sometimes very limited. Especially if you enable "Threaded format" (default mode) and post an iRule snipped far deep into a conversation, the <PRE> formated content will become hard to read. Thanks to annoying word-wraps...
TBH... i dont know a single developer which is turning on "word wrap" just to read the code better on very small monitors. Word wrap makes it basically just worse, but miliage may vary for 0,0001% of the human being... 😉
I would like to propose a CSS change to make it easier to read code snippets here on DevCentral.
pre code {
white-space: pre ;
overflow-x: scroll ;
}
Cheers, Kai

Hi DevCentral Team,
The mandatory "review" step is slighly annoying and somehow kills the dynamic of Codeshares. Why do I have to wait a few days till the CodeShare is published and why do I have to wait another few days to correct a simple typo?
Example:
iRule based RADIUS Health Monitor Builder - DevCentral (f5.com)
The Github link at the buttom of the Codeshare got somehow broken during initial publishing. I immediately corrected the link, but now having to wait another couple days till its review is done?
Why even review a CodeShare if such broken links are not detected before approving it?
Cheers, Kai
