Objectives
- Analyze tmos and traffic processing architecture, including tmm, management plane, full-proxy behavior, and traffic flow.
- Configure or structure application delivery objects, including nodes, pools, members, monitors, virtual servers, and snat.
- Evaluate tls and application availability, including client-side and server-side ssl profiles.
- Manage high availability and troubleshooting, including device trust, sync-failover groups, traffic groups, and mirroring.
- Apply big-ip configuration lab, including publish a resilient https application through a virtual server.
Target audience
- Professionals responsible for this subject area
- Managers, supervisors, and team leaders
- Analysts, specialists, engineers, or coordinators working with the relevant processes
- Project, implementation, assurance, or improvement team members
- Professionals preparing for broader responsibilities in this field
