1.5.1. Lab Overview

Day 3, you get a little curious and wonder why both BIG-IP’s you’ve been working on say they’re managed by BIG-IQ (look near the red f5 ball on the top left of both BIG-IP’s). Unbelievable, all this time you’ve been configuring both devices independently when you could have been configuring them on a central management device.

Central Management Version - 6.0 was a major evolution of the BIG-IQ product line designed to become the primary source of centralized management for all physical and virtual F5 BIG-IP devices. BIG-IQ extends its offerings for security users, improving the user experience, and adding robustness and scale throughout the platform.
