Mohamed - July 2026 Featured F5er
Welcome to our Featured F5er Series. For July we are spotlighting momahdy, an exceptional contributor to our DevCentral community. DevCentral: To start, please introduce yourself and tell our community a little about yourself. What you do and why is it important? Mohamed: Hello everyone! My name is Mohamed Mahdy and I've been with F5 for the last 8 years, 4 of them in Consulting and the past 4 years in Technical Marketing team. Through the 8 years I covered different sectors whether Government, Defense, Services Providers, Financial or Education sectors. Why I got into security in general; I always loved learning everything, and one major part of our work involved understanding every deployment and project, not just the technical elements but the impact it leaves on every person involved. Few seconds delay, a breach or even a complex solution can be the difference between critical systems and efforts being protected or wasted. In addition to the actual work, I really enjoy educating the community because that's how I learn the best; The moment I meet a friend who says that he used any of the articles or any of our conversations and those were helpful, I feel the message is well delivered. Away from Work, I'm leading ISC2 chapter in West Midlands and participating in multiple community activities for security education. DevCentral: As a Principal Technical Marking Engineer at F5, what is your typical workday like? Mohamed: Big part of it connecting with my colleagues in Product team and field team to explore how can we get more end-to-end use cases to the community to help customers get familiar with the use cases and try them out. In some cases we are engaged with our colleagues in the field to help accelerate troubleshooting activities or solutions enhancement. One of the interesting areas of Technical Marketing Engineering team, is that we set at the cross roads between Technical and Business, that allows us to speak both languages and understand both; So, we help getting the end-to-end solutions use cases those actually help our customers and contribute to the field. DevCentral: What do you do to maintain a work life balance? Mohamed: Having great colleagues sometimes make work time feels like home, in addition to this I would say running and family time is what keeps the spark DevCentral: Can you give us a glimpse into your technical expertise? Mohamed: My approach is why not give it a try ? It's not working, let's roll up our sleeves. I started in Service Providers where packet captures solve your most critical issues, moving into F5 I got exposed to everything from L1 up to L7, whether it's a deployment, design or troubleshooting. F5 products are unique, you don't need to know F5 configurations only but also understanding the underlying protocols. DevCentral: What’s the most exciting thing you’re working on right now? Mohamed: Currently I'm focusing on BIG-IP Service Providers technologies and Kubernetes offerings (BNK / CNF / CIS ). Also leading the hybrid integrations with BIG-IP security products in general. I'm working on more articles to introduce those topics in an easy way to our community and make sure we are not lost in the new terms, and we are actually focusing on what works. DevCentral: What has been your most memorable achievement at F5? Mohamed: I would say every time a field colleague mention that any of the labs or articles helped I consider that a memorable moment. The most memorable one would be participating in AppWorld Vegas preparations. Seeing all those technical content in booths and customers talking and asking our SMEs after months of preparation, that was awesome. DevCentral: As an F5er who participates in the DevCentral community how has it helped or influenced your work? Mohamed: DevCentral community was special not just when I joined F5 but even before being part of F5; the ease of discussing solutions, raising queries and talking to peers in different industries in such community spirit really helped. DevCentral: Are there any challenges that community has helped you overcome? If so, what was it and how did community help? (Does not have to be DevCentral related) Mohamed: I would start with iRules, the other one would be learning to find different ways to deliver the information to suite different audiences. DevCentral: What does community mean to you? Mohamed: A group of diverse background persons crowdsourcing their knowledge to get the best outcome, the community acts as incubator for ideas DevCentral: What is your favorite or best piece of advice someone has given you? Mohamed: Security shouldn't be forced; Through my career I found this is the best advice, talking to the business and application teams to first understand their needs and then walk them through how security can be an enabler not a gate keeper proved to be the best approach. DevCentral: If you weren't in your current profession what would be your dream job? Mohamed: I would go for farming, I've been doing random trials here and there to plant mint and other plants, and I would say it's fun and very comforting DevCentral: What are your favorite or go to comfort foods? Mohamed: Yam yam yam! I would go for the Egyptian Koshari DevCentral: Now that we have entered summer, what are your favorite summer activities? Mohamed: I would say if I'm in Egypt, going to the sea at Marsa Matrouh. DevCentral: Lastly, what motivates you? Mohamed: New challenges, problems we need to find solutions for.

He's been helping many other members with some great tips so let's catch up with Mohamed!DevCentral's Featured Member for March - Thomas Dahlmann
Our Featured Member series is a way for us to show appreciation and highlight active contributors in our community. Communities thrive on interaction and our Featured Series gives you some insight on some of our most engaged folks. DevCentral MVP Thomas Dahlmann is our Featured Member for March 2023! He's been helping lots of other members with some great tips so let's catch up with Thomas! Plus, his birthday is this month so let's all wish him a Happy Birthday! DevCentral: First, please explain to the DC community a little about yourself, what you do and why it is important. Thomas: I am an experienced (aka old) senior security consultant who is deeply passionate about technology. I have an insatiable curiosity and am determined to fully understand the inner workings of any technology I encounter. This curiosity has led me down many rabbit holes and taken up a significant amount of my spare time, but it has also been instrumental to where I am today. I joined the security industry as a trainee at IBM in 2000 which started my journey into the world of firewalls, vpn, antivirus (yes I’m that old), mail scanners and a lot more. It was a blast. I had my first encounter with F5 in 2006 and have never looked back. It really got into my blood stream. In comparison, other technologies seem trivial and uninteresting. The F5 technology stack gives an unpresedented visibility into what goes around in the infrastructure and especially what needs to be done about it to keep bad actors out and maintain production stability. I’m told that I laugh a lot and easy to locate in a big building. DevCentral: You’ve been an active contributor in the DevCentral community. What keeps you involved? Thomas: While the F5 software stack is undeniably impressive, it can also be a daunting challenge that feels like a vertical mountain waiting to be climbed. As someone who has bumped their head and picked up painful experiences along the way, I am determined to spare others from similar struggles. I am constantly learning from DC and consider it my go-to source for knowledge and inspiration. As a result, I feel a sense of responsibility to share my insights with the community. We all stand on the shoulders of others, and I find it incredibly fulfilling to help lift others up and empower them to succeed. DevCentral: Tell us a little about the technical expertise/learning history you have. Thomas: I think, like many others, my journey started with LTM. It was a good fit for me as an infrastructure individual coming from the switching, routing, firewall world. The logic around the proxy mindset gave me a better understanding of the lower levels in the protocols as well as the higher. The more I played around with iRules the more familiar I became with HTTP and its inner workings. It was also in those days when Firepass came around and introduced me to authentication on a whole new level. When Firepass became APM the toolset just jumped to a complete new level. In the good old days before cloud and CDN, BIG-IP GTM (now called DNS) and WAM had its prime time and I also had a couple of projects with delivering content closest to the client. Again, it was an experince which got me up close and personal with HTTP and how you could trick the browser to be smarter. One of the most difficult modules to get on the wire is BIG-IP ASM/AWAF. It took me a couple of months to learn how to use the tool but many many years to master the delicate process of convincing customers that a web firewall is worth the time and show them how to operate it without the struggle. Recent time has given us Shellshock and Log4j so it has become easier to exemplify the needs for protecting the webapplications. Due to the recent geopolitical situation DDoS has shown us how vulnerable we are without proper protection, and here AFM has shown why it is there. It is quite satisfying to watch a DDoS attack just being swept away without interfering with production. As the F5 environment becomes bigger and more complex, I have used more and more time on finding ways to automate and work smarter. This is why I started my Let's Encrypt integration automation scripts. A lot of time goes into this simple but important task and saving just a couple of minutes every day really counts. This scripting focus also talks natually into the way clouds work and how you fx operate thousands of domains in F5 Distributed Cloud. A lot of what is required of us today is simply too dynamic to be operated manually. Fortunately, the F5 software stack has consistently proven to be a reliable and effective solution for meeting these needs. DevCentral: You are a Senior Security Consultant at Orange Cyberdefense. Can you describe your typical workday, how you manage work/life balance and the strong support of F5 solutions? How has the pandemic impacted your work? Thomas: My job is multiroled and besides working as a consultant I also have a dozen consultants reporting to me. So, a typical week is split between nursing my consultants, administrative tasks, interfacing with the business and helping out customers. When I work as a consultant my assignments are split into projects and ad-hoc tasks. Balancing all of these responsibilities can be a delicate task, as it is important to ensure that I don't burn out. Luckily I'm a soccer dad which forces me to clock-out and stand on the sideline of the soccer fields or shuttle the kids around the country for matches. There is nothing like mother nature teaching you about themodynamics of the northern hemisphere (freezing your extremities off) to clear you mind. To sharpen my F5 skills I have created my own mini datacenter back home. I run my own mail infrastructure and various other services. Most of these services are tied in behind some sort of F5 product, BigIP or NGINX. This forces me to be eating my own dogfood and is a perfect testbed for solutions my customers are looking for or I can build new crazy constructions for inspriation. It is simply the best way of learning how it all works. Now looking back at the previous 2-3 years of Covid I feel a lot has changed and a lot stays the same. The nature of the pandemic has forced us to think differently, and for some to brake habbits. For some it is now possible to be working remotely which was unheard of before. This flexibility has really given possibilities and made the world a bigger place. It has also shown to me that I really need to be close to people and I how much I thriwe in a crowd. I feel we lost out on a lot of oppotunities because of the distance and people were harder to reach. Nothing beats a room with a whiteboard and a lot of coffee. I think were are slowly finding a new balance between interacting physcially and working remotely. DevCentral: Do you have any F5 Certifications? If so, why are these important to you and how have they helped with your career? Thomas: Yes, I'm a 401 CSE. There are two specific reasons as to why I hold this certification. First one is to keep our partner level, we must hold a certain amount certified consultants. The second one is to prove to customers that I can more than spell to F5. You become more trustworthy with this badge. I have always been in the partner channel so certifications were mandatory. What I have come to realize is that being forced to prepare for these certifications actually gets you through documentation you otherwise wouldn't have. Everytime I do this I pick up new knowledge, niche or sometimes groundbraking. So it isn't all bad. DevCentral: Describe one of your biggest Customer challenges and how the community helped in that situation. Thomas: Recalling all the times I've frantically searched for a small detail that ultimately saved the day is a challenge. However, it's often those little things that make a significant difference. I see the big strength of the community in that you always have access to a solution, part of it or inspiration for it. This ubiquitous access to knowledge for everyone is what sets F5 apart from all others. If I shall highlight a single event I think I will select a situation where one of my customers was suffering from DDoS attacks that we needed to fix - fast. A search on DC gave me a skeleton for an iRule. Our requirements where somewhat more demanding than what we could find, but by giving us the inspiration the iRule grew from 20 lines to beyond 600. This iRule is now in my standard toolbelt against DDoS and is slowly expanding everytime attacks comes in or the customer environments changes. It has proven its worth and is now protecting numerous customers in different industries. A true testament to the power of the community. DevCentral: Lastly, if you weren’t doing what you’re doing – what would be your dream career? Or better, when you were a kid – what did you want to be when you grew up? Thomas: When it comes to my career path it has always been easy - something with IT. Observing others as they struggle to find their way, I feel immensely privileged by how effortlessly my own journey has unfolded. I don't think I have ever dreamed of being anything else, boring I know. Should I have chosen another path, I think I would have chosen a military career. Ironically, when I look at my daily life today, I can't help but feel that I chose a non-kinetic military path, as I find myself entrenched in protecting customers from cyber attacks. ---Thanks Thomas!

Communities thrive on interaction and our Featured Series gives you some insight on some of our most engaged folks. DevCentral MVP Edouard Zorrilla is our Featured Member for February! He's been helping many other members with some great tips so let's catch up with Edouard! DevCentral: First, please explain to the DC community a little about yourself, what you do and why it is important. Edouard: I am a Professional Engineer licensed in the Province of Alberta, Canada. I have been working in the IT industry for over 20 years now. I am specialized in the Network Security scope. That being said, I like working in the Network Security because keeping information safe it is important for organizations our communities as well. DevCentral: You’ve been an active contributor in the DevCentral community. What keeps you involved? Edouard: I find the community to be a good place to find answers and knowledge. There is also people with plenty experience willing to help other members and share their experience. DevCentral: Tell us a little about the technical expertise you have. Edouard: I have been working in the IT sector for over 20 years now, and in F5 Networks technologies for the last 10 years. DevCentral: You are a Network Analyst at ASEBP. Can you describe your typical workday, how you manage work/life balance and the strong support of F5 solutions? How has the recent pandemic impacted your work? Edouard: My typical workday is basically to enhance the security posture at our organization. The F5 Infrastructure has proven to be very flexible and capable to meet our expectations. The pandemic has basically moved all employees working remotely, and now most of the staff continue working remotely using F5 security gateways to terminate the SSL VPN tunnel. DevCentral: Do you have any F5 Certifications? If so, why are these important to you and how have they helped with your career? Edouard: I have my F5 DNS certification recently achieved. Those certifications have been a factor to advance on my career while showing the employers that I am capable to support and manage their networks. That is why I now plan to challenge the BIG-IP ASM exam DevCentral: Describe one of your biggest Customer challenges and how the community helped in that situation. (Does not necessarily have to be DevCentral) Edouard: One of the biggest challenges we had was to provide a fast and secure VPN access when the pandemic broke. We had been able to accomplish those requirements using BIG-IP APM. DevCentral: Lastly, if you weren’t doing what you’re doing – what would be your dream career? Or better, when you were a kid – what did you want to be when you grew up? Edouard: When I saw the Star Wars saga, I wanted to build those star ships. That seemed to be very exciting. ---Thanks Edouard! The DevCentral Community really appreciate your willingness to share with our Members.

Our Featured Member series is a way for us to show appreciation and highlight active contributors in our community. Communities thrive on interaction and our Featured Series gives you some insight on some of our most engaged folks. F5 Community Member Mohamed Kansoh is our DevCentral Featured Member for December! He's been helping many other members with some great tips so let's catch up with Mohamed! First, please explain to the DC community a little about yourself, what you do and why it is important. Mohamed: Well Firstly, thanks for this appreciation. This is Mohamed Kansoh, I’m Egyptian and I’m 26 years old, I’ve earned my bachelor’s degree in “Communications and Electronics” from Faculty of Engineering Menufia University since 2019. After that I worked on myself by taking more online trainings in networks and security field to be more qualified in Labor market. I started my career at the beginning of 2020 at BARQ Systems Company where was my first time to deal with F5 Products and other security Solutions. I started working with Firewalls then F5 Technologies such as BIG-IP LTM and ASM which I have found it more interesting and powerful to know and work with Specially with troubleshooting in network and security issues. At BARQ SYSTEMS I implement new F5 projects from Scratch and support our customers in their technical issues until resolved. DevCentral: You’ve been an active contributor in the DevCentral community. What keeps you involved? Mohamed: Yes, I see that F5 Community as a third hand for anyone who works with F5 technologies. When I get stuck with issues with F5, implement a new service or have any concern, I used to search for an adequate workaround, I find the clue or ideal solution at F5 Community. Also, it’s not fair to see F5 users need help or have technical concerns and I know a proper solution for them and do not reply, indeed! it’s a disappointment to see issues or technical concerns with no answer or reply even if a reply as a matter of thinking out loud. F5 Community expands my scope of knowledge, I learn much from it specially iRules and technical Articles, F5 Community adds to me every day and it keeps me updated. F5 is the closest network solution to my heart and I hope to reach the expert level with All of F5 Technologies one day! I value it and its role in networking, especially with troubleshooting, Also F5 gives you a clear vision throughout your whole network. My word to our customers “if you want a rich, secured and a high-quality network, you must implement F5 to offload your applications.“ DevCentral: Tell us a little about the technical expertise you have. Mohamed: After almost 3 years of working experience in network and Security Field, I have got experience with: Routing, switching and network design. Multiple Vendor Firewall Solutions such as: Juniper SRX Firewall. Palo-alto Firewall. Fortigate firewall. General knowledge with Forcepoint. General Knowledge with Cisco FTD. Web Applications Firewall (F5 ASM). Application Delivery controller (ADC F5 LTM). General Knowledge with Global load balancing (F5 GTM). General Knowledge with Infoblox (DNS, DHCP, IPAM) “DDIP Certified”. General knowledge with Symantec ProxySG. (Forward Proxy). DevCentral: You are a Network and Application Security at Barq Systems. Can you describe your typical workday, how you manage work/life balance and the strong support of F5 solutions? How has the recent pandemic impacted your work? Mohamed: In normal days, I engage with our customers who require to implement new services, have an issue, and need troubleshooting until it solved, start new projects from scratch (implementing, Configuring F5 appliances) till Lunching the targeted production services. Nowadays, I engage with “Telecom Egypt “Company one of the biggest ISPs Companies in Egypt, I support them in a project related to F5 Advanced WAF, I have finished the implementation and Configuration of F5 appliances and now it serves production services. In my free time outside of my work, I pass this time with my wife and my laptop beside me to check the DevCentral Community periodically. I want to see if anyone has inquiries or technical concerns and my wife sees what I do and how I’m happy when I help someone. She becomes thrilled when someone accepts my solution and she loves the right marks ✔! 😄 She encourages me so much to help others. If there are no technical concerns in the community, I study to complete my F5 certification path or reading more technical Articles. I used to play Football when I was a child, but I have given up playing football at college ☹ but still enjoy watching football matches till now. Due to Covid-19 pandemic I have worked much more from home, maybe pandemic does not affect so badly with persons who works in IT field because they can proceed in their work tasks remotely. But it impacts badly with people in other fields which they do all of their work tasks physically with their hands. I hope safety for each one and hope the world to be cleaned from this Covid-19 pandemic. DevCentral: Do you have any F5 Certifications? If so, why are these important to you and how have they helped with your career? Mohamed: Yes, I’m a certified technology specialist in Advanced WAF, I passed F5 (101, 201, 303) exams, and now I am preparing for the rest of 3xx exams specially (F5 301a and 301b). Then I target to start studying F5 GTM, APM, AFM and BigIQ. Really, it’s a disappointment to see questions in F5 Community and I can’t reply or give any solutions related to (APM, GTM or BIGIQ), I still need to be more qualified in other F5 modules. To be honest, F5 Certification improves my understanding, knowledge and self-confidence, there is a noticeable difference in my quality before and after studying and taking exams. I do not think you can support strongly F5 without reading, studying, taking notes, working alone, searching, and organizing yourself in general. Certification has made a difference in my technical personality and self-confidence when dealing with our customers, even in my work promotions! I appreciate the certifications very much and my hope is achieving the expert level of certification path one day. “Sometimes technical certificates speak instead of you and give a very good impression about you!“ DevCentral: Describe one of your biggest Customer challenges and how the community helped in that situation. (Does not necessarily have to be DevCentral) Mohamed: I do not remember a specific challenge because DevCentral Community has helped me many times, but my biggest challenges were with iRules. With navigating Devcentral community, I can say that my level in writing codes has been improved by detecting my errors in them and solve them quickly. Sometimes you don’t find your technical needs in F5 articles, and you find it easily with DevCentral so I am grateful to this community which includes helpful people. DevCentral: If you weren’t doing what you’re doing – what would be your dream career? Or better, when you were a kid – what did you want to be when you grew up? Mohamed: I aimed to be an engineer and I’m lucky to achieve my childhood dream which became my destiny, so I think that I am on the right way in my career and doing my best rather than thinking of another one. DevCentral: What are You a Force For? Mohamed: I am a force for my wife. I’m grateful to her and my parents as well. I am a force for rejecting racism and I believe in a decent life for all. ---Thanks Mohamed! The DevCentral Community really appreciate your willingness to share with our Members.

He's been on a tear lately with helping other members so let's catch up with Sebastián! DevCentral: First, please explain to the DC community a little about yourself, what you do and why it is important. Sebastián: Good morning, Good Afternoon, and Good Evening to everyone, my name is Sebastián Sierra Domínguez I am a system engineer in love with F5 technologies. I live in Spain but I´m originally from Colombia, I packed my baggage more than 3 years ago and decide to leave my life in Colombia and start a new life in Spain one of the most remarkable decisions in my life. I started with F5 solutions since 2015 and from this day I never stopped learning new things and expanding my knowledge. In my free time, I like going to work out, cycling, jogging, playing basketball, roller skating, and other things that represent a good lifestyle, because we keep many times seated for a lot of hours working. DevCentral: You’ve been an active contributor in the DevCentral community. What keeps you involved? Sebastián: Well, DevCentral for me was always one of the best free communities with difference from other vendors, and I decided to keep involved because when you help other people, at the same time you are reinforcing your knowledge and creating new "a win to win", in many times I have to turn on an F5 device to test a feature and found a solution to help the community. and absolutely because this community around the years provided me always support and I think that this type of platform must keep working always and with the help of everyone we can make it's possible. DevCentral: Tell us a little about the technical expertise you have. Sebastián: For the last 8 years, I have been working dedicated to F5 deployments with all the different modules in F5, BIG-IP LTM, ASM, GTM-LC, APM, AFM,BIG-IQ, and Advanced Protocols, but life was not beautiful always, I had a lot of works as technical support, SW and FW administrator, Linux operator, probably the best base to be a humble person who always listens to fist the customer and try to meet all their requirements. DevCentral: You are a Security Specialist at Logicalis Spain. Can you describe your typical workday, how you manage work/life balance and the strong support of F5 solutions? How has the pandemic impacted your work? Sebastián: At Logicalis I help our clients to develop and deploy F5 products to meet technology necessities, government requirements, security improvement, and many other use cases. I start my day with a good coffee from Colombia, I read my emails and prepare all the necessary meetings with my customers for the different projects that I have to meet, I deploy many labs, test a lot of configurations and probably this is one of the reasons that makes me participate constantly in the DevCentral community, I'm always looking to extend and improve the deployments with my customer to give the best customer service, one of my personal focus in each project. Covid-19 changed my life absolutely, before pandemic I always woke up early and prepare for going to the office, and now everything is different, work remotely is an amazing benefit, but trying to keep a good lifestyle when you are all day in the home is fundamental, balance your work and time for your self is not always easy but is important keep always in mind because personal time and family time is one of the most important things in life. DevCentral: Do you have any F5 Certifications? If so, why are these important to you and how have they helped with your career? Sebastián: I'm 401-CSE security and 402-CSE cloud around 4 years ago and I always re-certify my exams, it is important for my company for many customer processes, and of course, it is important for me because it helps you to differentiate from other candidates in interviews for example, and this was the key point that helps me to move to Spain with a work permit, so yes, it helps me to improve my life and my career opportunities and I only can to thank the incredible work from the Dr. KJ (Ken) Salchow and their amazing certification team. DevCentral: Describe one of your biggest Customer challenges and how the community helped in that situation. Sebastián: Well, I think that is difficult to determine what is the biggest customer challenge that the community helps me to solve. because I continue using the public F5 resources such as AskF5 and Devcentral to improve and solve many issues that I found in my customers day to day. and of course, I have to mention the technical support that provides F5, probably one of the best of all vendors, I always call F5 support when I have a critical issue, and in 80% of the cases I solving the issue with their help. DevCentral: Lastly, if you weren’t doing what you’re doing – what would be your dream career? Or better yet, when you were a kid – what did you want to be when you grew up? Sebastián: Becoming a system engineer was my second plan in life, I always liked machine function and mechanical engineering was my first plan but unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to study this career. And today I think that my knowledge allows me to use all the F5 modules to develop solutions that help to improve the security and functionality of my customer's applications, and in other perspectives, this is like building a machine taking pieces of software that makes a specific function. ---Thanks Sebastián!
