BIG-IP: Ways to operate and automate Explore what’s possible with BIG-IP automation

  • 00:00 Chapter 1: Deploying Infrastructure as Code  05:37 Chapter 2: Automating API Endpoint Protection  12:21 Chapter 3: Set up Infra with Terraform, AS3 & iRules  23:12 Chapter 4: Terraform State Management 

Learn how to integrate BIG-IP with GitOps and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) principles, enabling version-controlled automation, secure deployments, and collaborative workflows. 

  • 00:00 Chapter 1: Terraform and Ansible Chaining
    11:47 Chapter 2: Scaling BIG-IP Infrastructure
    19:35 Chapter 3: Logging & Troubleshooting in Terraform & Ansible

Learn how to use Terraform to provision infrastructure (cloud instances, networks, and BIG-IP devices) and Ansible to manage configuration (pools, monitors, virtual servers). You’ll also learn how to integrate both tools into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins), and how to automate failover and logging workflows with structured templates.
