Is there ressources to mock iControlREST?

Hello all, Is there a huge zip file somewhere with a complete dump of a "classic" F5 installation with virtual servers, policies, etc. I want to mock a iControlREST for unit testing and integration...

When I say a dump of an F5 installation I mean a JSON dump of answers from iControlREST to different requests. So you’ll be able to reproduce the dialog between a service and an iControlREST but without a "real" F5.

    Hello Cedric.

    ​

    It doesn't exist a current dump but you could get one by yourself just querying a F5 with only-read queries.

    ​

    You can start from here:

    curl -sku admin https://localhost/mgmt/tm/ | jq >> output.txt

    ​And after that, you have to query all the links you get from the response (except self-links!)

    ​

    Regards,

    Dario.
