VPN Communication Error with F5 BIG-IP Edge Client
While using the F5 BIG-IP Edge Client (F5 RemoteAccess), the session timer configured on the server is set to 8 hours. The user continuously generated traffic by sending PING requests to DNS. However, after approximately 10 minutes, a VPN communication error occurred. The attached file contains logs up to the point of failure. I observed that a GetBestRouteToDestination error occurred, after which communication with the internal VPN network was no longer possible. At this time, I am unable to determine whether the communication failure preceded the error or vice versa. I try F5 official support, but I don't have any license, so I can't anything. I try contact distributor in my country, but they not response. Please help us resolve this issue and ensure stable, continuous communication.
setup F5vpn using key stored in TPM?
Can I setup an F5VPN connection using a key generated and stored inside the TPM of my Linux laptop? Platform is Debian 13? AFAICT f5fpc is based upon openssl (which could imply PKCS#11 support), but the documentation doesn't mention it. https://techdocs.f5.com/en-us/edge-client-7-2-4-1/big-ip-access-policy-manager-edge-client-and-application-configuration-7-2-4-1/clients-for-linux.html The openconnect F5 implementation is not an option, unfortunately, due to company policy.

APM VPN LDAP POOL can't contact ldap server.
Hi, I have a question regarding APM VPN and LDAP authentication. When I configure the LDAP server using the direct LDAP Server IP, the authentication works fine. However, when I use a Pool with the same LDAP Server IP, it shows the error message: "Can't contact LDAP server." From the packet capture, it seems that no traffic is being sent out at all. Is there any specific configuration I need to adjust for LDAP Pool settings? Thank you.
DNS resolve issues on Ubuntu 24 LTS with f5fpc
Hi, Problems connecting to vpn after upgrading to ubuntu 24.04 | DevCentral After switching to Ubuntu 24 LTS, I encountered the connection issues as described here https://community.f5.com/discussions/TechnicalForum/problems-connecting-to-vpn-after-upgrading-to-ubuntu-24-04/329549 . Applying the fix symlinking /etc/resolv.conf made things work partly. What I am seeing is that, after connecting with f5fpc, /etc/resolv.conf contains the two nameservers of my vpn domain (great), but also still my local lan nameserver (192.168.1.1 , not so great). This makes that about 1 in 3 DNS requests for hosts on the vpn side fail. $ cat /etc/resolv.conf 17 │ nameserver 192.168.20.2 18 │ nameserver 192.168.20.25 19 │ nameserver 192.168.1.1 20 │ search .
