NGINX(ingress controller)-F5 integration
Hello Team I am working on integrating F5 and NGINX(ingress controller) as per below article https://devcentral.f5.com/s/articles/Better-together-F5-Container-Ingress-Services-and-Nginx-Ingress-Controller-Integration I have created F5 Container Ingress Services as per the link and have couple of questions - --bigip-username=$(root) --> this is GUI or CLI username and does it have to bracket, like mentioned - --bigip-password=$(shivshiv) --> this is GUI or CLI username and does it have to bracket, like mentioned - --bigip-url=https://192.168.178.44:8443 --> do we need port 8443 to be mentioned or can i just put https://192.168.178.44: Also added envFrom: - configMapRef: name: as3-template ->> do we need to call config map here, its not part of yaml file in the above link - secretRef: --> i have created using imperative model, does this is OK as opaque or we need to refer kubernetes.io/service-account.name: bigip-ctlr created for CIS controller name: bigip-login --insecure=true ( i understand this will allow the session to be established without exchanging certificate, or is this the requirement) Once CIS controller been created and AS3 been defined, I understand i will be to connect with F5 and initial config can be done as specified in AS3. Is my understanding correct? Also i have installed following package, is this requirement? f5-appsvcs-3.17.1-1.noarch Most importantly: Does this integration supported between open source NGINX or do we NGINX+ as ingress controller ? Looking forward to the response. Thanks a lot in advance Kind Regards Kunal
error: deployment "apigw" exceeded its progress deadline
Hi, I tried to install nginx-controller, when I tried to install and startup automatically i had this error: "16. Running database initialization task... Job k8s-ctrl-init failed to complete. Detailed information can be found in installation logs at /var/log/nginx-controller/failure. Retry NGINX Controller installation or contact support, providing all logs." If I installed without starting the services I can see this: ./helper.sh controller status error: deployment "apigw" exceeded its progress deadline ERROR: Service is not ready: deployment.apps/apigw kubectl logs apigw-6db76488c4-ddc6t nginx-init Error from server (BadRequest): container "nginx-init" in pod "apigw-6db76488c4-ddc6t" is waiting to start: PodInitializing Any idea?

Cost of API usage
For the F5 API family below, is there any cost for using API? Per API usage or by tiers or subscription to a program, etc. outside of the purchase of the products. https://clouddocs.f5.com/products/big-iq/mgmt-api/v0.0/ApiReferences/bigiq_public_api_ref/r_public_api_references.html
Configuring ingress controller in front of bigip
We have a application deployed in kubernetes cluster.We have configured VIP in bigip and necessary dns mapping is done. We have deployed a kubernetes ingress controller and rules to route the request to the application. Is it mandatory that we should use bigip controller/resource?
