Direct to BIG-IP AS3 Service Deployments

Deploy the AS3 Service Definition

Using the tool of your choice (i.e. VS Code, Postman, GitLab Web IDE + pipeline) configure the BIG-IP using the previously created service definition.

  1. Send the newly created definition to the BIG-IP.

    • POST https://{{big_ip_mgmt}}/mgmt/shared/appsvcs/declare
  2. DO NOT log into the BIG-IP to validate the configuration…that would be cheating.

  3. Note the response back from the BIG-IP.

    • If the declaration was successful, you will receive a 200 OK response.
    • If you recieve a 4xx response back, note the error in the body and address the issue as required.
  4. After successfully deploying the application, we will begin to monitor the health of the application with BIG-IQ and Graphite.

Todo

Include examples of good/bad responses?

Note

To reconfigure the BIG-IP, modify the AS3 service definition and re-post to the AS3 URI.
