Initialize method gives False

HI

 

I am new to the F5 world and first time trying to use IControl interface DLL. My purpose is to create a Monitoring dashboard for the production F5 we are using. Once I load the DLL in powershell, when I call Initialize method, it gives me False and so it never succeeds.

 

I am giving Device's DeviceASelfIp for the IP filed and 443 for port number. Username and password I am giving are the same that I use in Big-IP configuration Utility.

 

 

Can anyone please explain what these paramaters are and how can I validate what should be given for IP,port and username, and password ?

 

 

Thanks
