Hey @Ronenb that's great that you're building a lab with VE! What point are you at right now? Do you have just a hypervisor and you need instructions on installing the VE itself? Do you have a VE installed but have not configured BIG-IP?

[Ronenb]

Hi,

We are building an ESX server in our fram. I have just started.

After installing the VE, it is up and running, now I am in the process of building the servers and the client side. I am looking for server templates (RED/GREEN/BLUE) based on your demo.

It would be great if you could provide me with a full guide I can follow .

Ok here is a lab guide from our Agility labs: https://clouddocs.f5.com/training/community/adc/html/class1/class1.html

And then here is a container used as the HTTP backend that I think you're asking about: https://github.com/f5devcentral/f5-demo-httpd

Hi Buulam,

How to use the backend container for testing purposes, can you explain a bit it would be very helpful.

Thanks

[buulam]

Hi @ashish_solanki are you running Docker?

Once you have that installed, the backend container is has some docker commands under this section of the readme: https://github.com/f5devcentral/f5-demo-httpd#usage

It has some different parameters as well that will let you adjust posts, color etc.
