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.

You can achieve a lot of that but you'll need to dissect the functions from the existing Layer7 solution a little bit further. They do typically translate to what would be standard reverse proxy, SSL/TLS offload or bridging, rewriting, authentication and WAF functions on a BIG-IP. Each of those functions is a lot to unpack if you are just getting started with BIG-IP so I would suggest at least getting through some of the Getting Started courses on university.f5.com. I would also suggest discussing with your local F5 Solutions Engineer as well as they can probably get into a deeper discussion about what you have configured on your Layer7 and give you a bit of a road map on what to tackle first on your BIG-IP.

We are currently utilizing Layer7 as an API gateway, mainly to handle LDAP authentication and SAP ochestration. We want to move those services from layer 7 to F5 and get rid of layer7. I just need a process or steps to migrate any of the service
