Configuring BIG-IP VIPRION (BIGIPVPR)

 

Course Overview

This course provides network professionals with a functional understanding of the BIG-IP VIPRION platform. It includes an overview of the chassis, hardware options, Clustered Multiprocessing (CMP) and virtual CMP (vCMP) deployment options.

The course includes lectures, demonstrations, hands-on labs, and discussions.

Who should attend

This course is intended for system and network administrators responsible for installation, setup, configuration, and administration of the BIG-IP VIPRION system. You will benefit from first attending the Configuring BIG-IP LTM instructor-led training and having several months or more experience configuring BIG-IP LTM before attending this course..

Prerequisites

Prior to attending Configuring BIG-IP on VIPRION, the student must have attended one of the following courses:

The student can also benefit from attending Configuring BIG-IP LTM and several months experience configuring the BIG-IP LTM product before attending this course.

F5 US has brought out a BIG-IP Admin exam which can be taken before attending the LTM course. Indeed, this test should be taken by anyone wanting to attend any of the F5 specialist classes (DNS, APM, ASM, AFM etc.) if they have not attended the BIG-IP Admin or LTM class. Although this is not mandatory, F5 would like to stress the importance of anyone attending F5 specialist classes if they have not attended an Admin class or passed the test BELOW with 70% or greater. Obviously, a 201 BIG-IP Administrator exam certification is an instant prerequisite.

Step 1: get an account on F5 University (https://university.f5.com)

Step 2: goto: https://wbt.training.f5.com/wbt/go?id=2110

Take the test. Pass mark is 70%.

Step 3: take a screen shot as proof of your results
