Import SSL Orchestrator configuration into BIG-IQ
Before importing an SSL Orchestrator (SSLO) configuration from a BIG-IP device to manage SSLO configurations on BIG-IQ, you must first discover the BIG-IP service.
To begin managing BIG-IP SSLO configurations from BIG-IQ, you must discover the SSLO service and import its configuration. You can re-discover services at any time, but importing this service is a one-time process.
Unlike other services that can be managed from BIG-IQ, SSLO uses a one-time import process. Because you cannot re-import an SSLO configuration, after you complete the initial SSLO discovery and import, do not perform any SSLO configuration changes locally (on the BIG-IP). Instead, you can avoid configuration inconsistencies between the BIG-IP device and BIG-IQ by making all changes on the BIG-IQ.
- On BIG-IQ, at the top, clickDevices.
- On the left, clickBIG-IP DEVICES.The screen displays the list of managed devices for this BIG-IQ Centralized Management system.
- Under Device Name, click the hostname of the BIG-IP device that contains the SSLO configuration you want to import.
- SelectSERVICES.
- To import an SSLO device configuration into BIG-IQ, scroll down to SSL Orchestrator and selectImport.After you clickImport, the system opens a popup screen. On this screen, you review and update the settings for the SSLO service on the device. Then, you deploy those settings back to the BIG-IP device before importing the service to BIG-IQ.
- ForLocation, identify where the devices are physically located.
- To add this service to an existing location, clickUse Existing, and select the location to which you want BIG-IQ to add this device.
- To specify a new location, clickCreate New, and then type a name for the new location.
- Scan the rest of the settings and revise as needed.If SSLO has been configured on the BIG-IP device, BIG-IQ displays the current settings from the device. Otherwise, all other required fields are set to their defaults. In either case, you have the option to revise these settings here.
- ClickDeploy.BIG-IQ deploys the configuration you specified to the BIG-IP device, and then displays anImportbutton.
- ClickImport.BIG-IQ imports the SSLO configuration from the BIG-IP device.
Once you import an SSLO configuration, you should perform all SSLO configuration management from BIG-IQ. When you have changes to make, you can revise the configuration of all SSLO devices using one deployment.
