F5 VPN Broken on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Heads up, the Ubuntu package for the F5 VPN is broken under the upcoming Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. The dependencies are clearly wrong since there has been an ABI change between Qt5.5 (as advertised) and Qt5.9 (installed) - The UI doesn't even show up. Listed dependencies: libqt5core5a (>= 5.5), libqt5network5 (>= 5.5), libqt5widgets5 (>= 5.5), libqt5gui5 (>= 5.5), libqt5dbus5 (>= 5.5), libqt5sql5 (>= 5.5), libqt5webkit5 (>= 5.5), libqt5opengl5 (>= 5.5), libqt5printsupport5 (>= 5.5) Since the package will likely be used on different debian-compatible architectures, it would be advisable to statically compile the library and remove the dependecy alltogether instead of relying on people having an ABI-compatible version that you compiled with. A timely update is appreciated, thanks.State lookup fails with "access denied" for firewall policy
I am in the process of setting up Ubuntu Linux (20.04) clients with VPN access using f5epi. Everything works, except for a firewall policy. The client side logs contain: 2021-09-29,12:50:17:954, 19837,19837,, 48, , 221, CreateInspector(), Created new OesisModule: SDK Version = '4.3.1161.0', V3V4 Adapter Version = '4.3.980.0' 2021-09-29,12:50:17:954, 19837,19837,, 48, , 224, CreateInspector(), Created new reference 2021-09-29,12:50:17:954, 19837,19837,, 48, , 74, OesisModule:Run(), policyData=type=fw&collect=2&count=1&check_list_type=required&vendor_id1=97&id1=0&version1=&platform1=2&state1=1 2021-09-29,12:50:17:954, 19837,19837,, 48, , 169, OesisLogInfoPolicy(), server configuration check list ===> Type: fw vendor_id: 97 id: 0 version: platform: 2 state: 1 2021-09-29,12:50:19:043, 19837,19837,, 48, , 86, OesisModule:Run(), testing product: id=97001 2021-09-29,12:50:19:043, 19837,19837,, 48, , 98, OesisModule:Run(), Product didn't match with any product from "server configuration check list"-> 2021-09-29,12:50:19:043, 19837,19837,, 48, , 194, , id=97001 2021-09-29,12:50:19:043, 19837,19837,, 48, , 194, , vendor_id=97 2021-09-29,12:50:19:043, 19837,19837,, 48, , 194, , version=1.8.4 2021-09-29,12:50:19:043, 19837,19837,, 48, , 194, , name=IPTables 2021-09-29,12:50:19:043, 19837,19837,, 48, , 194, , vendor_name=IPTables 2021-09-29,12:50:19:043, 19837,19837,, 48, , 194, , errors=Failed to get 'state'. code: -32 (Access denied) mId: 1 iId: 11 2021-09-29,12:50:19:087, 19837,19837,, 48, , 155, OesisModule:Run(), leave (check failed) I assume the issue is that the iptables state check is trying to do something it is not allowed to do locally. Does anyone recognize this problem or have any information on what OesisModule is trying to access in this case?
LAB problem: BIG-IP VE + VMware Workstation + Ubuntu
Hi! I am trying to set up a lab to prepare for my 201 exam. This is my setup: OS: Ubuntu 14.10, 64 bit Processor: Intel Core I5-4570 CPU@3.20Ghz x4 Hypervisor: VMWare Workstation 12.1.0 BIG-IP VE: 11.3.0.39.0-scsi If I'am trying to start big-ip ve in VM workstation as a "guest operating system" == Other 64-bit (default setting), VMware workstation shows an error with message: "This virtual machine is configured for 64-bit guest operating systems. However, 64-bit operation is not possible.This host supports Intel VT-x, but Intel VT-x is disabled.Intel VT-x might be disabled if it has been disabled in the BIOS/firmware settings or the host has not been power-cycled since changing this setting.(1) Verify that the BIOS/firmware settings enable Intel VT-x and disable 'trusted execution.'(2) Power-cycle the host if either of these BIOS/firmware settings have been changed.(3) Power-cycle the host if you have not done so since installing VMware Workstation.(4) Update the host's BIOS/firmware to the latest version.For more detailed information, see http://vmware.com/info?id=152." When I try with "guest operating system" option set as "Other", VM Wrokstationd loads GRUB and shows message: "This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU. Unable to boot - please use a Kernel appropriate for your CPU" Please advise how to handle this problem.
