Install rpm packages using tmsh
Hi everyone, I’m trying to install the F5 Cloud Failover Extension (CFE) on my BIG-IP system, but I’m struggling to properly install the RPM package so that it appears under iApps → Package Management LX. Here’s what I have done so far: Successfully downloaded f5-cloud-failover-2.1.3-3.noarch.rpm Tried installing the package using rpm -ivh f5-cloud-failover-2.1.3-3.noarch.rpm. Restarted the REST API service using tmsh restart sys service restjavad. Despite these steps, the package does not appear under iApps → Package Management LX Also when I reinstall the package I get "package f5-cloud-failover-2.1.3-3.noarch is already installed" Is there a specific command to install RPM packages via TMSH so they are properly recognized? Or is there another step required to make the extension available? Thanks in advance for any insights!
Export Virtual Server Configuration in CSV - tmsh cli script
Problem this snippet solves: This is a simple cli script used to collect all the virtuals name, its VIP details, Pool names, members, all Profiles, Irules, persistence associated to each, in all partitions. A sample output would be like below, One can customize the code to extract other fields available too. The same logic can be allowed to pull information's from profiles stats, certificates etc. Update: 5th Oct 2020 Added Pool members capture in the code. After the Pool-Name, Pool-Members column will be found. If a pool does not have members - field not present: "members" will shown in the respective Pool-Members column. If a pool itself is not bound to the VS, then Pool-Name, Pool-Members will have none in the respective columns. Update: 21st Jan 2021 Added logic to look for multiple partitions & collect configs Update: 12th Feb 2021 Added logic to add persistence to sheet. Update: 26th May 2021 Added logic to add state & status to sheet. Update: 24th Oct 2023 Added logic to add hostname, Pool Status, Total-Connections & Current-Connections. Note: The codeshare has multiple version, use the latest version alone. The reason to keep the other versions is for end users to understand & compare, thus helping them to modify to their own requirements. Hope it helps. How to use this snippet: Login to the LTM, create your script by running the below commands and paste the code provided in snippet tmsh create cli script virtual-details So when you list it, it should look something like below, [admin@labltm:Active:Standalone] ~ # tmsh list cli script virtual-details cli script virtual-details { proc script::run {} { puts "Virtual Server,Destination,Pool-Name,Profiles,Rules" foreach { obj } [tmsh::get_config ltm virtual all-properties] { set profiles [tmsh::get_field_value $obj "profiles"] set remprof [regsub -all {\n} [regsub

"destination"],[tmsh::get_field_value $obj "pool"],$profilelist,[tmsh::get_field_value $obj "rules"]" } } total-signing-status not-all-signed } [admin@labltm:Active:Standalone] ~ # And you can run the

View NAT / SNAT Sessions
Hi, I have recently enabled an SNAT in an iRule: switch -exact -- "1" [IP::addr [getfield [IP::client_addr] "%" "1"] equals 10.80.0.0/16] { snat automap } and I am trying to work out how many sessions are being SNAT'd as a result of this change. Issuing the commands: sho ltm nat sho ltm snat sho sys connection cs-client-addr 10.80.0.202 etc are not giving me any results. I am not so much interested in the details of the sessions, just totals so I can verify that I'm not exceeding the 64k limit but obviously doing something wrong. Thanks James
Remote User Management - LDAP Client Cert
Has anyone successfully deployed LDAP using client cert authentication to the BIG-IP TMUI? I see the guide though it is not very intuitive so I was curious if anyone would be willing to share their configuration? From what I hear, there have been bugs prior to 13.1 which have now been resolved to allow this capability. Thanks! https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/manuals/product/bigip-user-account-administration-13-1-0/5.htmliControl REST Cookbook - Virtual Server (ltm virtual)
This cookbook lists selected ready-to-use iControl REST curl commands for virtual-server related resources. Each recipe consists of the curl command, it's tmsh equivalent, and sample output. In this cookbook, the following curl options are used. Option Meaning ______________________________________________________________________________________ -s Suppress progress meter. Handy when you want to pipe the output. ______________________________________________________________________________________ -k Allows "insecure" SSL connections. ______________________________________________________________________________________ -u Specify user ID and password. For the start, you should use the "admin" account that you normally use to access the Configuration Utility. When you specify the password at the same time, concatenate with ":". e.g., admin:admin. ______________________________________________________________________________________ -X <method> Specify the HTTP method. When omitted, the default is GET. In the REST framework, POST means create (tmsh create), PATCH means overwriting the existing resource with the data sent (tmsh modify), and PATCH is for merging (ditto). ______________________________________________________________________________________ -H <Header> Specify the request header. When you send (POST, PATCH, PUT) data, you need to tell the server that the data is in JSON format. i.e., -H "Content-Type: application/json. ______________________________________________________________________________________ -d 'data' The JSON data to send. Note that you need to quote the entire json blob, and each "name":"value" pairs must be quoted. When you have nested quotes, make sure you escape (\) them.

For enabling the virtual, use "enabled":true. Note that the Boolean type true/false does not require quotations. tmsh modify ltm virtual <vs> disabled curl -sku admin:admin https://<host>/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual/<vs> \ -X PATCH -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"disabled": true}' \ Sample Output { kind: 'tm:ltm:virtual:virtualstate', name: 'vs', fullPath: 'vs', ... disabled: true, <== Changed ... } Add another iRule to <vs> When the virtual has iRules already attached, you need to send the existing ones too along with the additional one. For example, to add /Common/testRule1 to the virtual with /Common/testRule1, specify both in an array (square brackets). Note that the /Common/testRule2 iRule object should be already created. tmsh modify ltm virtual <vs> rules {testRule1 testRule2} curl -sku admin:admin https://<host>/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual/<vs> \ -X PATCH -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"rules": ["/Common/testRule1", "/Common/testRule2"] }' Sample Output { kind: 'tm:ltm:virtual:virtualstate', name: 'vs', fullPath: 'vs', ... rules: [ '/Common/test1', '/Common/test2' ], <== Changed rulesReference: [ { link: 'https://localhost/mgmt/tm/ltm/rule/~Common~test1?ver=12.1.1' }, { link: 'https://localhost/mgmt/tm/ltm/rule/~Common~test2?ver=12.1.1' } ], ... } Create a new virtual <vs> You can create a skeleton virtual by specifying only Destination Address and Mask. The remaining parameters such as profiles are set to default. You can later modify the parameters by PATCH-ing. tmsh create ltm virtual <vs> destination <ip:port> mask <ip> curl -sku admin:admin -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"name": "vs", "destination":"192.168.184.230:80", "mask":"255.255.255.255"}' \ https://<host>/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual Sample Output { kind: 'tm:ltm:virtual:virtualstate', name: 'vs', partition: 'Common', fullPath: '/Common/vs', ... destination: '/Common/192.168.184.230:80', <== Created ... mask: '255.255.255.255', <== Created ... } Create a new virtual <vs> with a lot of parameters You can specify all the essential parameters upon creation. This example creates a new virtual with pool, default persistence profile, profiles, iRule, and source address translation. The call fails if any of the parameters conflicts. For example, you cannot specify "Cookie Persistence" without specifying appropriate profiles. If you do not specify any profile, it falls back to the default fastL4 , which is not compatible with Cookie Persistence. tmsh create ltm virtual <vs> destination <ip:port> mask <ip> pool <pool> persist replace-all-with { cookie } profiles add { tcp http clientssl } rules { <rule> } source-address-translation { type automap } curl -sku admin:admin https://<host>/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"name": "vs", \ "destination": "10.10.10.10:10", \ "mask": "255.255.255.255", \ "pool": "CentOS-all80", \ "persist": [ {"name": "cookie"} ], \ "profilesReference": {"items": [ {"context": "all", "name": "http"}, {"context": "all", "name": "tcp"}, {"context": "clientside", "name": "clientssl"}] }, \ "rules": [ "ShowVersion" ], \ "sourceAddressTranslation": {"type": "automap"} }' Sample Output { "addressStatus": "yes", "autoLasthop": "default", "cmpEnabled": "yes", "connectionLimit": 0, "destination": "/Common/10.10.10.10:10", "enabled": true, "fullPath": "/Common/test", "generation": 592, "gtmScore": 0, "ipProtocol": "tcp", "kind": "tm:ltm:virtual:virtualstate", "mask": "255.255.255.255", "mirror": "disabled", "mobileAppTunnel": "disabled", "name": "vs", "nat64": "disabled", "partition": "Common", "persist": [ { "name": "cookie", "nameReference": { "link": "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/ltm/persistence/cookie/~Common~cookie?ver=13.1.0" }, "partition": "Common", "tmDefault": "yes" } ], "policiesReference": { "isSubcollection": true, "link": "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual/~Common~test/policies?ver=13.1.0" }, "pool": "/Common/CentOS-all80", "poolReference": { "link": "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/ltm/pool/~Common~CentOS-all80?ver=13.1.0" }, "profilesReference": { "isSubcollection": true, "link": "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual/~Common~test/profiles?ver=13.1.0" }, "rateLimit": "disabled", "rateLimitDstMask": 0, "rateLimitMode": "object", "rateLimitSrcMask": 0, "rules": [ "/Common/ShowVersion" ], "rulesReference": [ { "link": "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/ltm/rule/~Common~ShowVersion?ver=13.1.0" } ], "selfLink": "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual/~Common~test?ver=13.1.0", "serviceDownImmediateAction": "none", "source": "0.0.0.0/0", "sourceAddressTranslation": { "type": "automap" }, "sourcePort": "preserve", "synCookieStatus": "not-activated", "translateAddress": "enabled", "translatePort": "enabled", "vlansDisabled": true, "vsIndex": 52 } Delete a virtual <vs> tmsh delete ltm virtual <vs> curl -sku admin:admin https://192.168.226.55/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual/<vs> -X DELETE Sample Output No output (just 200 OK and no response body) References curl.1 the man page curl Releases and Downloads ... including the port for Windows Jason Rahm's "Demystifying iControl REST" series (DevCentral) -- This is Part I of 7 at the time of this article. iControl REST API reference (DevCentral) iControl® REST API User Guide (DevCentral) -- Link is for 12.1.

How to modify client-ssl on multiple VS using TMSH
Hi, I was able to get the list of virtual servers using cert1 for example by list and grep. Now, I want to use TMSH to use the CLI in replacing client-ssl cert1 to cert2. If I have like 50 VS, how to do that using modify on TMSH? If I do modify /ltm virtual VSname profile add SSLname context clientside, im getting this error: "vs has more than one clientssl/serverssl profile with same server name" If I do delete, im getting this error: "Syntax Error: "context" is a read-only property" If I do replace-all-with, cert2 is configured but wipes all other profiles and i don't want to put alot of config to reconfigure all profiles in a VS. Is there a 1 line command I can do? TIA
