Getting Started

Please follow the instructions provided by the instructor to start your lab and access your jump host.

Note

All work for this lab will be performed exclusively from the windows jumphost. No installation or interaction with your local system is required.

Lab Topology

The network topology implemented for this lab is very simple. Since the focus of the lab is Control Plane programmability rather that Data Plane traffic flow we can keep the data plane fairly simple. The following components have been included in your lab environment:

  • 2 x F5 BIG-IP VE (v12.0)
  • 1 x F5 iWorkflow VE (v2.0.0)
  • 1 x Linux Webserver
  • 1 x Windows Jumphost

The following table lists VLANS, IP Addresses and Credentials for all components:
