Hi Nforba it sounds like you may be referring to the former CA Layer7 API Gateway product? I don't believe we have any specific documented guidance on this. Do you have an idea of what functions were done on the Layer7 and we might be able to point you in the direction for how these would be setup on a BIG-IP?
The following functions are running on the layer7
SAP PROCESS ORCHESTRATION
Solarwinds
SAP Services (Gateway, gateway rest and gateway timeout long).
On layer7 API Gateway 1) TLS or SSL request is done, 2) HTTP basic authentication against LDAP and 3) redirect app server such as SAP PO, SAP PRD
We need to migrate those services to F5. Thanks

Ok, this is a fairly older document but it gives an idea of configuration of some of these features.

These are fairly standard LTM functions so if you are familiar with basic LTM operations, you should be good. If not, you may want to have a look at university.f5.com so some introductory content on LTM to get yourself up and running.

We already have SAP deployed and the task I want to accomplish is using F5 as an API gateway that will route traffic to SAP. We do have BIG-IP ASM/AMP/LTM products.
