Supported templates additions in 4.0.0

In addition to minor enhancements and fixes, this release contains the following:

  • Prod stack (no public IP) templates
    F5 OpenStack Heat Orchestration templates now include the option of a Prod Stack. This means the templates launch a configuration without creating or assigning a floating IP address on the external network. This allows organizations to operate their BIG-IP VEs privately with no public external access. These templates allow trusted users management access to the BIG-IP VEs and perform ADC functions in private network environments.

  • Templates now include additional port lockdown settings
    The OpenStack Heat Orchestration templates now include additional port lockdown options (allow-all, allow-default, allow-none), allowing for greater flexibility.

Experimental templates additions in 4.0.0

  • Cluster nNIC template
    This template introduces our nNIC (multi-NIC) solution for clustered deployments. This allows you to specify additional network interfaces (up to a total of 10, including management) for your BIG-IP VE clustered deployment. This template is extremely useful when the BIG-IP VE is being used as a traffic controller and requires more than 3 network interfaces.

  • Static and Dynamic IP addressing options
    F5 has created new experimental templates that allow you to deploy OpenStack templates using a statically defined IP address for BIG-IP VE management. These templates (in the Static directories) are useful if there is no DHCP server available, or it it is disabled on the neutron subnet. Alternatively, if you want to use a template that uses DHCP to assign the BIG-IP VE management IP address, use the templates in the Dynamic directories.

  • Standalone and cluster licensing using BIG-IQ
    These experimental templates allow you to use a BIG-IQ device to license BIG-IP VEs using BYOL licenses for standalone deployments.
