AS3 Monitoring multiple ports selectively
Hi, I have nodes listening on port 80, 81, 82, 83. the port 80 is mandatory and at least one out of the other 3 ports is mandatory. with manual configuration, I put the port 80 monitor at the node level and the other 3 ports at pool member level. with AS3, the node level monitoring does not exist. what are the other options given that all my deployments are based on AS3. thanks.

Uri-based client cert authentication question
Hi, I need to configure a virtual server with selective client cert authentication based on URI. In case user select cert auth the uri changes to /myweb/secure/, F5 should request client cert, renegotiate SSL and insert client cert into HTTP header so the back-end server can read client cert. There is quite a lot of info and posts about this feature, which I've readed. I've config VS, SSL profile (client) and irule but I just can't make this work. SSL profile client: renegotiation enabled client authentication client certificate: ignore frequency: once trusted certificate authorities & advertised cert: bundle of client cert CA irule: when CLIENTSSL_CLIENTCERT { HTTP::release if { [SSL::cert count] < 1 } { reject } } when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::uri] starts_with "/myweb/secure/" } { if { [SSL::cert count] == 0 } { HTTP::collect SSL::authenticate always SSL::authenticate depth 9 SSL::cert mode require SSL::renegotiate } } } when HTTP_REQUEST_SEND { clientside { if { [SSL::cert count] > 0 } { HTTP::header insert "x-clientcert" [X509::whole [SSL::cert 0]] } } } I'm not sure whether /myweb/secure/ path is ever accesible, since there is no browser pop-up requesting the client certificate. I really can't figure this out, any hints would be most appreciated. Thanks a lot for your time and help.
Slow SSL handshake on "Performance(Layer 4)" VIP.
Hello I am seeing a weird issue I have a "Performance(Layer 4)" VIP and the issue I see is when I do a - time openssl s_client -connect : I see a 4 sec delay on the initial SSL handshake after Client Hello. I don't see this delay when hitting the back-end server directly. Any clues or suggestions? The back-end servers are Linux so no net-bios setting in play.

Error when running bigip_command Playbook against LTM : Syntax Error: unexpected argument /bin/sh\n
I am running a Playbook to test bigip_command using ansible [core 2.15.3] against LTM running 15.1.6.1. When I run the playbook I get the following message: UNREACHABLE! => { “changed”: false, “msg”: “Failed to create temporary directory. In some cases, you may have been able to authenticate and did not have permissions on the target directory. Consider changing the remote tmp path in ansible.cfg to a path rooted in "/tmp", for more error information use -vvv. Failed command was: ( umask 77 && mkdir -p "echo $HOME/tmp"&& mkdir "echo $HOME/tmp/ansible-tmp-1709037153.0021555-3167181-73985055078518" && echo ansible-tmp-1709037153.0021555-3167181-73985055078518="echo $HOME/tmp/ansible-tmp-1709037153.0021555-3167181-73985055078518" ), exited with result 1”, “unreachable”: true } When I run the Playbook with -vvv flags I see the following line just before the error message pasted above: Failed to connect to the host via ssh: Syntax Error: unexpected argument “/bin/sh” Similarly, if I test the ssh I also see this same unexpected argument message: ansible all -m shell -a id -vvv Syntax Error: unexpected argument “/bin/sh”\n’ I have tried editing various things in hosts file and ansible.cfg but nothing I have tried seems to have made a difference. Is anyone familiar with this and what is needed to resolve this. Any help is greatly appreciated!
