View Connection Server Config with UAG
The guides for load balancing Unified Access Gateway have quite a bit of detail regarding the DMZ based components. My question is regarding the right-side of this configuration from the deployment guide. Does anyone have a link to documentation for setting up the View Connection Server config? There is documentation referenced within the UAG Deployment guide but I have been unable to locate the document itself. From prerequisites section of the UAG deployment guide. An internal virtual server configured for Connection Servers - To create the Virtual IP (VIP) for the Internal Connection Server, refer to the Load Balancing VMware Horizon Connection Servers guide on F5’s website. Appreciate any help.
Passing variables directly from iApps to TMSH.
Try as I might I just can't seem to work out how to get an iApp to pass a command to TMSH. I am trying to automate (via an iApp) the setup of around 300 GRE tunnels. I've created the iApp at the presentation section and made sure my variables have the correct information by writing them to scriptd.out via "puts" For Example, once a user fills in the fields presented to them via presentation, the resulting command set of variables is: Presentation Form: This would then translate into: puts [format "Example GRE Loopback command: %s" $::NONFLOAT$::GRESourceLoopback__lb-$::GRESourceLoopback__diocese-$::GRESourceLoopback__orgid$::IPADDRESS$::GRESourceLoopback__loopback/32$::TRAFFICGROUP$::VLANLOOPBACK] When I send it to the Log file the actual command reads: create /net self zscaler-wcf-gre-source-nonfloat-lb01-dbb-12345 address 10.4.200.200/32 traffic-group traffic-group-local-only vlan zscaler-wcf-gre-loopback How do I pass that command straight to TMSH from the Implementation part of the iApp? I've tried to get my head around iapp::conf but I don't understand what may need to "escaped" or not in the variables. Thanks....
SharePoint 2013 iApp and page loading issues since applying a CU
We are using iapp f5.microsoft_sharepoint_2010_2013.v1.1.0 for a SharePOint 2013 farm. We have one irule that fixes a ribbon issue and that has worked well until a recent CU was applied to SharePoint. The current iRule is: when HTTP_RESPONSE { if {[HTTP::header exists "Transfer-Encoding"]} { HTTP::payload rechunk } } when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::uri] contains "commandui.ashx" } { COMPRESS::disable } } However a recent upgrade to that SharePoint environment from: 15.0.4569.1506 (2015 CU Feb) To 15.0.4823.1003 (2016 CU May) Has caused page loading issues specifically when 5 or more list view webparts have been added to a page. If I take one listview web part off the page (leaving 4) the problem goes away, add it back on and straight away the page apppears to not fully load for a minute or more (I cannot scroll down the page to see further conntent), likewise when I click on the Page tab of the SharePoint ribbon I get the message 'Working...: and it takes maybe a minute or more to load the ribbon. Have there been any updates to the iApp? Has anyone tested the iApp recently against a SharePoint 2013 farm on the latest CU? Any help appreciated. Have tried the following in our test environment. Disabling compression Diabling OneConnect Diabling APM But still exhibits the same behaviour.
How to adjust VIP setting from an iApp
Hi, I have to adjust virtual-address settings from an iApp. The iApp create a single VS, with an unused destination-IP. So the associated VIP is automatically created. But I have to advertise this IP inside OSPF, so I would-like to do this in the iApp. If I use this line : iapp::conf create ltm virtual-address /Common/${::vs__vip} route-advertisement enabled the VIP is created with required parameters, but the virtual-ip is depending on the application : 1.1.1.6 without iapp::conf create ltm virtual-address 1.1.1.10 with iapp::conf create ltm virtual-address And the VIP cannot be modified, either inside or outside the iApp (changing traffic-group of the iApp or of the VIP for example) because of the application dependence. Do you know how to set default VIP settings ? Like advertisement, arp, etc. Thank you for your responses,
Problem using VPE policy macro created by iApp in v13 (works in v11) - Configuration error: Can't associate Access Policy Item folder does not exist
I have an iApp that I wrote that creates APM VPE policy macros for an existing APM policy that you specify. You are then able to assign the macro in the policy using the VPE tool. The functionality works perfectly in version 11 of BIG-IP APM. I am testing the iApp against version 13 of BIG-IP APM and I get the following error when trying to add the macro (which is created successfully) in an existing policy: Unable to execute transaction because of: 01070734:3: Configuration error: Can't associate Access Policy Item (/Common/Existing_mac_DemoExisting.app/keyid_macro_1) folder does not exist In this case I can't find any reference to /Common/Existing_mac_DemoExisting.app/keyid_macro_1 in the bigip.conf configuration file, so I'm not sure how it is concocting that path. I don't have any other problems with my iApp in V13 so far - I'm pretty well versed with iApps / APM in general. Screenshot from adding macro successfully in V11: Screenshot from failing to add macro in V13: The macros are created by the iApp look like this in the bigip.conf file: I am using the F5 BIG-IP BEST AMI image out on the EC2 marketplace for both versions.tmsh2iapp - Personalize Objects Name
Hi all, I'm using the tmsh2iapp utility to create an iApp template. I am able to create the template and instantiate it without any issues following the steps provided within the GitHub repo. tmsh2iapp I am trying to change the object's name created with this iApp, I want the name to be a suffix of the app name, for example: App name: my_app pool name: my_app_pool vs name: my_app_vs Here's the the content of my t2i file: @label(__pm__pool_default__): Pool Members @label(__virtual_address__): Virtual Address @label(__vip_port__): VIP Port ltm pool pool_default { __pm__pool_default__ monitor gateway_icmp } ltm virtual virtual_server { destination __virtual_address__:__vip_port__ ip-protocol tcp mask 255.255.255.255 pool pool_default profiles { tcp { } } source 0.0.0.0/0 translate-address enabled translate-port disabled } With this configuration all virtual servers created with the iApp are named virtual_server and all pools are named pool_default. The section Personalize Objects Name summarize what I want to accomplish - Create iApp Template Any guidance is greatly appreciate Thanks, Joel
