Has anyone encountered issues with rSeries Big IP Tenant with the integration of a layer 2 service? In my case, I cannot make the service to come up even though I have the exact VLAN name and tagging set in the OS bare metal, and exactly the same VLAN and tagging configured in the tenant.132Views0likes6CommentsAnsible - Upload Certificates requires Administrator Role?
Hi, I'm trying to give people the opportunity to manage their SSL Certificates themself. So I build something, that triggers an ansible playbook upload and update certificates on a LTM. The user has the role "Certificate Manager". When logged into the GUI with that user (for testing purpose), one can upload, update, delete certifactes and keys, no problem. When trying to use an ansible playbook with the credentials of that "Certificate Manager" Role user, the playbook fails with the following message: { "msg": "Failed to upload the file." } For uploading/updating certificates and keys I use the F5 ansible modules: f5networks.f5_modules.bigip_ssl_certificate f5networks.f5_modules.bigip_ssl_key When I change the user-role mapping from "Certificate Manager" to "Adminstrator" the playbooks works as inspected. I also tried the following role mappings, none of which had the permission to upload certificates and keys. Resource Administrator Operator Application Editor Manager Do i really have to use an user with Administrator Role? This would be a huge security issue in my opinion. Supplement: I've noticed, that "Terminal Access" was disabled for the specific user. I set it to "tmsh" and tried again. This time, I was at least able to run the playbook successfully, when the certificate was already the same I've tried to upload. So the result of ansible change was false. But uploading new certificates is still not possible.Solved95Views0likes3CommentsFailed to execute iptable cmd: ," CMD="iptables -A SSH_ALLOW_RULES error
Hi Mates, After upgrading rseries F5 OS to 1.5.4, I observed the below error and I am unable to do SSH for my F5 OS machine version 1.5.4 from the network: 10.54.7.0/24. Rest all the networks are working fine and we are able to do SSH to the same F5 OS machine. Is it something that device was unable to update this entry into iptables. Do we have to manually re-configure this rule? ys-host-config[11678]: priority="Err" version=1.0 msgid=0x7001000000000062 msg="Failed to execute iptable cmd: ," CMD="iptables -A SSH_ALLOW_RULES -s 10.54.7.0/24 -p tcp -m state --state NEW --dport 22 -j ACCEPT -w &>/dev/null" ERR="EXITINFO: 4".40Views0likes2CommentsRequirement for BIG-IQ VM Deployment in AWS
Can anyone please suggest on below. We have a requirement to deploy a BIG-IQ VM in the AWS cloud to manage our existing LTM, GTM, and WAF devices. We are planning to manage approximately 100 F5 devices using BIG-IQ. Could you please share the recommended system requirements (RAM and disk space) for the BIG-IQ instance to support this scale? and other details as well if required for the same. Kind regards39Views0likes2CommentsCannot ping external interface
Hi All, first post here, first time F5 devices and a complete novice. I have a couple of BIG-IP devices and the luxury to play and learn before we go live. I have one I am sure is going to be a simple (and probably stupid question) On our LAN I have been able to set one device with a management interface, a virtual server and all the hosts and nodes are connecting fine. This is in a typical round robin setup. The thing I cannot figure out is the external port and address. For brevities sake and simplicity I have one physical interface connected directly to the gateway provided by our ISP and we have a block of static public IPs provided. I have assigned , or want to assign, one of the spare IP address to this interface. This is method we have with our other (non F5 firewalls) and it works, but not here. I have created a VLAN called external , set it to untagged and assigned the interface connected to the gateway to this VLAN. I then assigned that VLAN to my VirtualServer. However I cannot ping or reach the external IP address in any fashion and I am not sure why98Views0likes8CommentsHA Failover between two Datacenters
I currently have three Host Load Balancers with LTM Guest, with GSLB. In datacenter 1 is two Host standalone w/two Guest in HA Failover / Synchronization - GSLB. In datacenter 2 is one Host standalone w/one Guest in standalone - GSLB. I am creating another set of three Guest for application isolation, two in datacenter 1 and one in datacenter 2, with no GSLB, due to application limitations of not using FQDN. Is if feasible to create a HA Failover/Synchronization between three Guest, even though they are in separate datacenters (450 miles apart). If so, what are some precautions that I should be aware of?
