Welcome to WWT's F5 APM Identify and Access management sandbox. This capability is a fully functioning sandbox that demonstrates how F5 APM can be used to achieve various levels of access control within an enterprise, such as Single Sign-On and VPN.

The purpose of this lab is to demo how NGINX Controller API Management Module and NGINX App Protect can secure the OAuth Authorization Code flow, which is core to Open Banking specifications. The NGINX App Protect will be deployed as an Ingress Controller for Kubernetes and will provide both negative and positive security by ingesting the OpenAPI declaration file. The NGINX API Gateway will be controlled by NGINX Controller, will publish the application API based on the same OpenAPI declaration file, will provide JWT authentication and authorization and enforce rate limiting. The deployment and configuration of these elements will be performed automatically through a CI/CD pipeline. ELK dashboards will be used for visualization purposes and, lastly, a DAST tool will also be run as part of the CI/CD pipeline. BIG-IP APM is deployed as both Authorization Server with OpenID Connect support and as OAuth Client, in separate instances.

Introducing security best practices during the early stages of software development and deployment can bring great benefits and helps improve the overall security posture of the application. Adopting agile methodologies can also improve the collaboration between teams and incorporate the DevSecOps practices within an organization, this can help an organization to achieve the GitOps principle and make their transition towards IaC. This lab focuses on the using NGINX Plus controllers and NAP policy lifecycle in an automated CI/CD pipeline. This pipeline uses automation tools such as Terraform and Ansible to manage the state of the devices.

Welcome to WWT’s F5 Terraform Automation Lab. The intended goal of this lab is to introduce and enable F5 administrators to utilize Terraform to automate, simplify and streamline the deployment of F5 services.

Welcome to WWT Virtual Environment (vLab) setup and hands-on F5 BIG-IQ Centralized Manager Lab exercises. These exercises are designed to utilize F5 BIG-IQ CM as a source of truth for deploying applications using the imperative and declarative(AS3) F5 REST APIs. Lab users will also learn to leverage Ansible as automation platform for managing F5 configurations.

SCA-FS is an architecture and immediately deployable set of cloud infrastructure and application components that demonstrate Infrastructure as Code principles. We use best practice application patterns that highlight F5's best-in-class cloud security and deployability.

Welcome to the World Wide Technology / F5 Virtual Environment (vLab) setup and hands-on F5 201 Exam Lab exercises. The purpose of this guide is to provide a sampling of hands-on exercises to better understand the subjects outlined in the 201-TMOS Administration Exam. F5 certification exams are designed to required hands-on experience to pass the test and these exercises will help you deal with exam questions requiring you to interpret configuration and other outputs from the BIG-IP.

Welcome to the WWT / F5 Virtual Environment (vLab) setup and hands-on F5 301a Exam Lab exercises. These exercises are designed to reinforce the concepts outlined in the LTM Specialist: Architect, Setup and Deploy 301a certification. F5 certification exams are designed to required hands-on experience to pass the test and these exercises will help you deal with exam questions requiring you to interpret configuration and other outputs from the BIG-IP.

Welcome to WWT’s F5 SSL Orchestrator Demo sandbox. This capability is a fully functioning demonstration of the F5 SSL Orchestrator integrated with other security vendors. Unlocking SSL encrypted traffic within the security stack is critical for the detection of malware, phishing attacks, data loss and other web based threats. Through this demo you will be able test drive, and see how these tools are used to detect threats.

Welcome to WWT’s F5 Automation and Programmability Lab. The intended goal of this lab is to introduce and enable F5 administrators in taking the first step to automate, simplify and streamline the F5 provisioning and configuration process.

WWT’s F5 OpenShift Lab introduces engineers and developers to the unique integrations that can be leveraged between F5 and Red Hat OpenShift. This lab demonstrates how F5 Container Ingress Services integrated with Red Hat OpenShift can provide security, scalability and availability of containerized applications in an enterprise environment.

F5 Privileged User Access (PUA) provides SSO, though a webtop, to all apps and admin interfaces, eliminating the need for individual user name and passwords. This enables the use of strong CAC/PIV multi-factor authentication into all apps and administration interfaces.
