Steps to deploy BIG-IP VE
To deploy the BIG-IP® Virtual
Edition (VE) system on Hyper-V, you will perform these
tasks.
| Step | Details |
|---|---|
| 1 | Choose the license you want to buy, the BIG-IP VE modules you want, and the throughput you need. See SOL14810: Overview of BIG-IP® VE license and throughput limits on the AskF5™ Knowledge Base (http://support.f5.com) for details. |
| 2 | Confirm that you are running a hypervisor version that is compatible with a BIG-IP VE release. See Virtual Edition and Supported Hypervisors Matrix on http://support.f5.com for details. |
| 3 | Verify that the host hardware meets the recommended requirements. |
| 4 | Download a BIG-IP VE image and deploy it. |
| 5 | Assign a management IP address to the virtual machine. |
After you complete these tasks, you
can log in to the BIG-IP VE system and run the Setup utility to perform basic network
configuration.
