Training goals

code: F5N-F5OS-VELOS

Gain a functional understanding of the F5 VELOS platform. Review F5OS platform layers, hardware components, and configuration of system controllers, chassis partitions, and BIG-IP tenants. Differentiate between VELOS and VIPRION in the areas of cabling, blades, chassis partitions, VLANs and LAGs, BIG-IP tenants, and vCMP guest configurations. Configure a VELOS chassis partition, create and modify a BIG-IP tenant, and create system controller and chassis partition backup configuration files. Activate a BIG-IP tenant and create traffic processing objects. Create a BIG-IP backup UCS file and restore it. Practice basic VELOS troubleshooting using basic VELOS system commands, QKviews, logging, and tcpdump output.
