Big-IP Next 20.2.0-2.375.1+0.0.43 iRule count problem
I have very simple iRule to show the problem: when HTTP_REQUEST { set Client_IP [IP::client_addr] if { ($Client_IP starts_with "x.x.x.x") && ([HTTP::uri] equals "/seed") } { table set -subtable TABLE "key1" "value1" 30 table set -subtable TABLE "key2" "value2" 15 table set -subtable TABLE "key3" "value3" 45 HTTP::respond 200 content "Done" TCP::close return } set key_value "key1" set key_value2 "key2" set key_value3 "key3" set count [table keys -subtable TABLE -count] HTTP::respond 200 content " Remaining timeout / defined timeout for ${key_value} => [table lookup -notouch -subtable TABLE ${key_value}] [table timeout -subtable TABLE -remaining ${key_value}]/[table timeout -subtable TABLE ${key_value}] Remaining timeout / defined timeout for ${key_value2} => [table lookup -notouch -subtable TABLE ${key_value2}] [table timeout -subtable TABLE -remaining ${key_value2}]/[table timeout -subtable TABLE ${key_value2}] Remaining timeout / defined timeout for ${key_value3} => [table lookup -notouch -subtable TABLE ${key_value3}] [table timeout -subtable TABLE -remaining ${key_value3}]/[table timeout -subtable TABLE ${key_value3}] Count TABLE ${count}" } It looks like table -keys -subtable <tablename> -count don't work properly: Remaining timeout / defined timeout for key1 => value1 27/30 Remaining timeout / defined timeout for key2 => value2 12/15 Remaining timeout / defined timeout for key3 => value3 42/45 Count TABLE 0 My expected output would be 3 (as it is not timeouted), not 0. Can someone check if I am correct? Or tell me how I can count not expired entries in table.BigIP Next - Health Monitors / Template
Just getting feet wet on BigIP Next. Q: Where are the heath monitor (node/pool) created and reconfiguration. Do they support versioning? Q: In the Classic LTM, there was a iAPP for VMWARE Horizon. I know iApps are not supported. Appear the template have replace them. I found a default list of template, but that appeared a little light in vendor application. Are there more template like the VMWARE published somewhere else.
NEXT CM - multiple GTM pool updates simultaneously
Using REST today on version 15 against the F5 GTM (DNS), it appears there's no support for updating multiple GTM pools in a single REST call. We're increasingly being asked to drive down the time it takes to facilitate an application's failover time from one datacenter to another. In some cases, I need to somehow disable a pool member from 100+ GTM pools in under a minute and REST can't keep up. In the NEXT model, I'm guessing we'll have to re-declare the whole GTM config to disable a pool member. Can you think of a way of meeting this type of timing need in NEXT CM?BIG-IP Next HA Pair Onboarding REST API
I've been playing around with BIG-IP Next in my home lab for the past few days and have managed to successfully onboard an HA pair of BIG-IP Next instances via the BIG-IP Next Central Manager GUI. I am now trying to do the same thing, but this time with the REST API. However, when I attempt to do this, I receive the following error when checking the onboarding task from Postman : "failure_reason": "failed to save details about new onboarding node (address 10.1.0.242)", I am using the following JSON documented under the 'Deploy an Onboarding Manifest' heading (I have just substituted the property values to reflect my lab environment) andI am sending the API call to the Central Manager management IP. https://clouddocs.f5.com/products/big-iq/mgmt-api/v0.0.1/ApiReferences/bigip_public_api_ref/r_openapi-next.html#operation/DeployOnboardingManifest Out of interest, has anyone managed to get this working?BIG-IP Next Access presentation/demo

Looking to try running it under Proxmox. Particularly from those F5 people who would know...Leslie_HubertusLet me know of any deal breakers in that regard. Since the CM provisions devices it may not like Proxmox and I may be better off staying with VMware ESXi 7.5?
