Cloud Apps Protection
Hello Everyone, I hope you're well, I realize a deploy A F5 Big-IP. I have two doubts: Can the Big-IP on-premise solution protect external web applications hosted on AWS and Azure? Can the WAF module in Big-IP on-premise protect mobile applications (APP Mobile)? Would it be possible in scenarios On-Premise , or I need to opt for a Distributed Cloud or Hybrid solution?
Connection Rate Limit with log output
Hello, I have a question about the "Connection Rate Limit". I recognize that this function is virtual server becomes don't receive new connection after exceeding this threshold. However, I'd rather not block new connection because I may block connection from normal user other than malicious user's one. (I want to output error message only) Q.Do you have any suggestions? (I think it can be achieved by using iRule) Best regards,
Unable to Forward APM and AFM Logs to AWS CloudWatch Using Telemetry Streaming
Hello Team, I am trying to forward AFM (Network Firewall) logs and APM logs from F5 BIG-IP to Amazon CloudWatch using F5 Telemetry Streaming. F5 BigIP version - BIG-IP 17.1.0.1 Build 0.0.4 Point Release 1 Current Behavior When I configure the security logging profile with local-db-publisher, I am able to see logs on the BIG-IP dashboard: Security → Event Logs → Network Firewall Security → Event Logs → Access However, when I change the logging profile to use a remote log publisher, I am unable to receive the logs in CloudWatch. My Decalartion { "class": "Telemetry", "My_Listener": { "class": "Telemetry_Listener", "port": 6514 }, "My_Consumer": { "class": "Telemetry_Consumer", "type": "AWS_CloudWatch", "region": "us-east-1", "logGroup": "loggrpname", "logStream": "logstreamname", "username": "Access Key", "passphrase": { "cipherText": "Secret Key" } } } Telemetry Architecture for AFM Security Log Profile → Log Publisher → Remote High Speed Log → telemetry_pool → 127.0.0.1:6514 → Telemetry Listener → Telemetry Consumer → CloudWatch Configuration Summary AFM policy and APM access policy attached to the virtual server Security logging profile attached to the virtual server Log Publisher configured Remote High-Speed Log destination configured Pool member configured as 127.0.0.1:6514 Telemetry Streaming declaration deployed.
How to add Syslog headers to Bot Defense logs over HSL? (Missing formatting options)
Hi DevCentral Community, I am running into issue with logging Bot Defense events to our SEIM (AIsaac) and could use some advice on best practices. We have logging profile configured to send both Application Security (ASM) and Bot Defense logs to a Remote Publisher. The Publisher is currently tied to a Remote HSL(High-Speed-Logging) destination. The Problem: For standard ASM WAF logs, we can easily format the log string directly in the GUI under the Applications Security logging tab. However, under the Bot Defense logging tab, there is no option to customize the log format. Because it is sending directly to a raw HSL destination, the Bot Defense logs are arriving at out SEIM completely stripped of standard Syslog headers. Without these headers, the SEIM cannot parse the logs correctly. My Questions: Is inserting a Syslog formatted destination before the HSL destination the official way to inject standard headers into Bot Defense logs? Is there any hidden tmsh command or iRule method to actually customize the Bot Defense log payload format, or is the payload structure strictly fixed by the system?iRule Developer Tools
Hi All, I've made a set of developer tools for Tcl including iRules, https://github.com/bitwisecook/tcl-lsp This includes LSP server Editor integrations for VSCode, Sublime Text, Zed, Jetbrains, Helix, neovim, emacs and more (though I've only really hammered on vscode there) MCP server Claude skills cli tool Semantic token highlighting Hover docs Format string interpreters AI tools for creating, explaing, validating, documenting, diagramming iRules and Tcl full optimising compiler chain with 26 optimiser passes 27 iRule specific diagnostics and optimisations Security warnings through taint tracking (use of user input tracked through the code) Shimmer detection with inline type hints (know when a variable type is being reinterpreted) Code formatting Code minification Compiler explorer to look at how your code is interpreted A full iRule testing framework and more. This is only based on publicly available information and my memory, though I have deployed enough iRules. This is the tool I always wanted. I could do with help expanding and improving the profile -> event / command maps, and the iRule event graph, and with generally finding bugs, so please, open issues. I will be away on holiday for a couple of weeks so please bear in mind I may take a little time to get back to you. cheers, Jim 🇬🇧🇦🇺
