F5OS support for TACACS+ over CLI
We ran into issues deploying rSeries and VELOS platforms on the network at our company using a custom form of TACACS+. Our implementation allows for application-specific domains with unique ports and keys. We had issues with it until we added the attribute value pairs to the TACACS+ domain profiles: Admin (unlimited_config): F5-F5OS-UID=1001 F5-F5OS-GID=9000 Operator (unlimited_enable): F5-F5OS-UID=1001 F5-F5OS-GID=9001 This change resolved the access issues via GUI and we are able to access using our TACACS+ credentials, but it does NOT work via CLI for access using the same credentials. We already have a case out to F5 about this, but I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same implementation challenge on accessing CLI using TACACS+.
F5OS (R-series) changing admin/root password
Hi, I have question / observation. I have have been running F5 R5900 for almost a year now, when i want to change the admin and root password via the GUI or CLI. The first next attempt to log in, it asking me change again. I also noticed when i change the password, the colomn "last change" in the GUI is empty. Does any one have the same thing? Is there a way to diable the force changing the password for admin and root account?
F5OS missing interfaces in tenant
Hello, I'm totally new to F5OS, I'm configuring a rSeries 2600 (1.5.1-12283) and deploying a tenant (BIG-IP 15.1.5.1 Build 0.0.14 Point Release 1). All seemed to work perfectly fine both in the host and the tenant deployments, but looking at the interfaces section on the tenant the list is totally empty! And in VLAN properties the "interface" section is missing. I assigned VLAN's to interfaces in the Network Settings at F5OS level - would it be by design that the interfaces are no longer showed in the tenant ? I tried to find info in the doc with no results... Any info/help would be more than welcome :-) Thanks & have a good day, Gerald
R2600 device and tenant/partition configuration
Hello, I'm working with configuration on r2600 where is one tenant with multiple vlans. On tenant perspective I want to add each vlan to specific partition. How to do this in correct way for rSeries? There is a bug http://cdn.f5.com/product/bugtracker/ID1231889.html which says that all vlans need to be in Common partition. On vCMP or bare metal there was an option to create vlan in partition, add it to route domain and then configure all other things (IP, routes, etc). So - what is proper way? Where can I find F5 document?
AD/LDAP Auth on rSeries F5-OS
AD/LDAP auth on F5-OS seems unnecessarily complicated compared to how TMOS handles it. Does anyone have this working in their environment? If so, can you explain which attributes are created (F5-F5OS-UID, F5-F5OS-GID, uidNumber, gidNumber, etc.) and if they are applied directly to the AD user and/or AD group? The config guide mentions that F5-F5OS-GID is the only required attribute (F5-F5OS-UID defaults to 1001). It's not clear to me if this attribute must be added directly to the user account or if it can be created in an AD group that the user is a member of. Then there is a Solution Article that says LDAP requires the user have a uidNumber and gidNumber. The AD group must have a gidNumber that corresponds to the associated group ID of the F5 system role. They provide an example of a AD user and AD group showing uidNumber and gidNumber, but there is no reference to F5-F5OS-GID.R-Series Appliance No GUI ( host system gui ) after 1.7.0 upgrade
