F5 Configuring BIG-IP Access Policy Manager V17.1
Application Security & Traffic Management
COURSE OVERVIEW
Learn how to set up and operate BIG-IP Access Policy Manager to protect your enterprise network and your data center using remote access methods such as SSL VPN, per-application layer 4 and reverse proxy layer 7 access methods as well as remote desktop access using Microsoft, Citrix and VMware protocols. Learn how to protect applications by adding Access Policies to BIGIP LTM virtual servers that allow or deny user access based on a set of conditions, such as user authentication using Active Directory or RADIUS or by determining if the client is running up-to-date anti-virus or firewall software.
Discover how to configure multiple resources using the aforementioned remote access methods, to provide applications such as SSH or Windows desktop to remote servers. With multiple resources created, dynamically assign resources based on the level of trust determined by conditions such as a user’s group membership, the client IP address geolocation information, the status of applications running on the client, and other available information. See how to craft complicated policies using easy-to-learn graphical flowcharting techniques that are quick to update and simple to propagate.
Learn how to use SSO techniques to make applications more accessible and more secure using credential reuse or federated single sign-on such as SAML – including both SP and IdP use cases. Review underlying technology and discuss typical use cases. Complete hands-on labs to reinforce each new topic as well as instill confidence for using the BIG-IP system in a production environment.
