How to find self ip of big-ip by using only utp port?

Assuming that you know what subnet the Self-IP is on, you could scan it, if it is listening for management traffic, it will answer at 443. I tell folks to disable that though, and not allow it on the self-ips. You're best bet is going to be to connect to the serial port.

 

As El_Jefe said, serial port access would be the simplest way to connect to the BIG-IP if you don't know the IP address(es) it's configured for.

 

 

If that's not possible, you can run Wireshark on your laptop listening on the interface you've connected to the BIG-IP. Look for traffic sourced from a 00:01:D7 MAC address and get the corresponding IP address.

another question ... where can i find a lab to test ltm except ltm essential lab in university.f5.com? thank you

Download a Virtual Edition free trial, and play around with it. Enjoy!

I suggest actually getting a VE lab edition evaluation key from an F5 or partner SE. The trial edition only supports 10.1 while the lab edition supports all current versions as well as all modules.
