F5 F5CAB1 Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

From the exhibit, the administrator performs the following actions:

Displays the current SSH allow configuration:

tmsh list sys sshd allow

allow { ALL }

Replaces the existing SSH allow list with a specific subnet:

tmsh modify sys sshd allow replace-all-with { 10.0.0.0/24 }

Confirms the updated configuration:

tmsh list sys sshd allow

allow { 10.0.0.0/24 }

This configuration restricts SSH access to only hosts that fall within the 10.0.0.0/24 network.

Evaluation of the options

A. 10.0.0.100

This address is within the 10.0.0.0/24 subnet and is a valid host address, so SSH access is permitted.

B. 10.0.0.254

This address is also within the 10.0.0.0/24 subnet and is a valid host address, so SSH access is permitted.

C. 10.0.0.256

This is not a valid IP address because an IPv4 octet cannot exceed 255.

D. 100.0.1.10

This address is outside the configured 10.0.0.0/24 subnet and will not be allowed.

E. 100.0.0.10

This address is also outside the configured subnet and will not be allowed.

In BIG-IP, software images are installed on boot volumes (for example, HD1.1, HD1.2, HD1.3, etc.).

To install software on a new volume , the administrator must instruct the system to create a new boot location before installation.

There are two correct ways to create a new volume:

A. tmsh command (with correct syntax)

tmsh install software image /shared/images/BIGIP- < version > .iso volume HD1.5 create-volume

This syntax correctly includes:

install software image

full path to ISO (/shared/images/...)

volume name (HD1.5)

create-volume keyword

This instructs BIG-IP to create the new boot volume as part of the installation.

C. Using the GUI → System > Disk Management

From the Disk Management menu, the administrator can:

Select “New Volume”

Enter the volume identifier (e.g., HD1.5)

Apply changes

This GUI method is officially supported and explicitly creates a new boot volume before installing the software.

Why the other options are incorrect:

B. Incorrect tmsh syntax

Missing /shared/images/ path

Incorrect command structure

D. Incorrect command structure

Missing required keywords and correct command hierarchy

E. Software Management → Install does NOT create volumes

This installs to an existing volume only

The GUI install dialog does not create new boot volumes

Thus, only Option A and Option C properly create a new software volume.

BIG-IP licensing information, including the Service Check Date , is stored in the file:

/config/bigip.license

This file contains all license attributes downloaded from the F5 licensing server, including:

License key

Licensed modules

Useful life date

Service check date

The Service Check Date determines whether the system is eligible for upgrades to specific TMOS versions. When reviewing upgrade readiness, administrators extract this value directly from the license file with:

grep " Service check date " /config/bigip.license

Why the other options are incorrect:

/config/bigip.conf stores BIG-IP configuration objects, not license metadata.

/config/svc_chk_date.dat is not a valid file in the licensing system; it does not contain license parameters.

/config/BigDB.dat stores internal database values, not licensing attributes.

Thus, only the bigip.license file contains the correct licensing information required for verifying upgrade eligibility.
