Overview: Access Policies for F5 Access

About access policy branches for F5 Access

You can configure separate access policy branches for F5 Access.
F5 Access does not support client-side checks; however, you can configure an access policy that provides network access for iOS clients by using any of these methods:
  • Create an access policy using
    Client-Side Capability
    . This provides a branch for clients that do not support client-side checks. Assign authentication and a network access resource to this branch.
  • Use an existing access policy with client-side checks. The iOS client will fail to the fallback branch of the first client-side check. Assign authentication and a network access resource to this branch.
  • Add a
    Client OS
    Access Policy item, and assign authentication and resources to the
    iOS
    branch.
F5 Access for iOS is detected with the following access policy items:
Access policy item

Client Type
Edge Client

Example of basic access policy that supports F5 Access

You can configure an access policy branch to direct
iOS
device users to F5 Access, and direct non-F5 Access device users to a fallback branch.
This example displays a simple access policy.
