First time setup
Hi Team-
Need your advice/assistance as Im new to F5 and have very limited knowledge on setting up the appliance. We recently purchased licenses for F5BIG-VE BT 200 and was able to setup on VMware 6.5. Yet to configure network adapters and other cool stuff so that i can protect web servers. My setup scenario is
Clients --> Internet --> Cisco ASA firewall --> F5 LTM (in DMZ) --> Web server (LAN)
Since we cannot afford multiple F5, we will use single F5 instance in DMZ (no failover pair). My question, is it possible to setup F5 LTM like mentioned in above topology? Is it possible to offload SSL traffic and use F5 device as proxy server? I dont want to put web server in DMZ except F5 appliance that is my goal here.
F5 licenses Carrier Grade NAT LTM ASM Global Traffic (DNS) Access Policy (APM) Application Visibility and Reporting (AVR) Advanced Firewall (AFM) iRules Language Extensions (iRulesLX)
Your inputs are much appreciated.
sincerely, sm
