F5-Administering BIG-IP

Describe the role of the BIG-IP system as a full proxy device in an application delivery network Set up, start/restart/stop, license, and provision the BIG-IP system out-of-the-box Create a basic network configuration on the BIG-IP system including VLANs and self IPs Use the Configuration utility and TMSH to manage BIG-IP resources such as virtual servers, pools, pool members, nodes, profiles, and monitors Create, restore from, and manage BIG-IP archives View resource status, availability, and statistical information and use this information to determine how the BIG-IP system is currently processing traffic Use profiles to manipulate the way the BIG-IP system processes traffic through a virtual server Perform basic troubleshooting and problem determination activities including using the iHealth diagnostic tool Support, and view traffic flow using TCPDUMP Understand and manage user roles and partitions Configure and manage a sync-failover device group with more than two members Configure stateful failover using connection mirroring and persistence mirroring Course Topics Getting started with the BIG-IP system Traffic processing with BIG-IP Local Traffic Manager (LTM) Using TMSH (TMOS Shell) command line interface Using NATs and SNATs Monitoring application health and managing object status Modifying traffic behavior with profiles, including SSL offload and re-encryption Modifying traffic behavior with persistence, including source address affinity and cookie persistence Troubleshooting the BIG-IP system, including logging (local, high-speed, and legacy remote logging), and using TCPDUMP User roles and administrative partitions vCMP concepts Configuring high availability (including active/standby and connection and persistence mirroring)
