Archiving the BIG-IP System ConfigurationĬhapter 2: Reviewing Local Traffic Configuration.

Use High Speed Logging (HSL) and SNMP trap implementations to perform troubleshooting and problem determination activities ĭescribe the role of iRules in affecting traffic behavior and how to use them to aid with troubleshooting and problem determination. List log files available, understand log levels, and use the appropriate files, log levels, and filters for troubleshooting Understand the tools (ping, netstat, tcpdump, ssldump, WireShark, diff, Kdiff3, Fiddler, BIG-IP logs, etc.) available to use to identify BIG-IP and network issues from bottom to top Perform troubleshooting and problem determination activities including using the iHealth diagnostic tool, researching known issues and solutions on AskF5, submitting a problem ticket to F5 Technical Support, and view traffic flow using tcpdump

Use iApps to update BIG-IP configuration View resource status, availability, and statistical information and use this information to determine how the BIG-IP system is currently processing traffic Understand and implement troubleshooting methodology to find and resolve issues Use the Configuration utility and TMOS Shell (tmsh) to manage BIG-IP resources and use as a resource when troubleshooting Ĭreate, restore from, and manage BIG-IP archives

Set up, start/restart/stop, license, and provision the BIG-IP system Ĭreate a basic network configuration on the BIG-IP system including VLANs and self IPs Describe the role of the BIG-IP system as a full proxy device in an application delivery network
