Overall Satisfaction with F5 BIG-IQ Centralized Management
F5 BIG-IQ Centralized Management provides a common interface to push quick changes across the F5 gear to mitigate several critical vulnerabilities that gets notified in the F5 quarterly advisory. It also helps to automate OS and patch management saving man hours for our team.
Pros
- Common system level changes like cipher suite customization, ssh protocol settings etc can be pushed to all F5 gear through one click of a button
- Enterprise standard templates for profiles/protocols etc., can be efficiently managed across F5 gear through a single interface
Cons
- To be able to schedule software updates at a later time/date to meet change management window so manual intervention is minimized. F5 BIG-IQ Centralized Management should be able to send alert if upgrade process halts or fails for any reason.
- Cut costs by requiring less manual hours to manage F5 OS installations
- Great monitoring and alerting tool for general F5 gear health
- Provides critical information for capacity planning of the F5 resources
