How can a BIG-IP Administrator identify a configuration object that has been configured within an iApp? (Choose one answer)

  • A. In both the GUI and the CLI the path will repeat the name of the object with .app appended to it and then name of the object. Example: ltm virtual /Common/testhttp.app/testhttp
  • B. In both the GUI and the CLI the path will repeat the name of the object with .app appended to it, and the object type will be appended to the name. Example: ltm virtual /Common/testhttp.app/testhttp_vs
  • C. Using the CLI run the appropriate tmsh command to view the path and see the .app in it and the object type will be appended to the name. Example: ltm virtual /Common/testhttp.app/testhttp_vs

The correct answer is A. In both the GUI and the CLI the path will repeat the name of the object with .app appended to it and then name of the object. Example: ltm virtual /Common/testhttp.app/testhttp.

Explanation
iApp Application Services (.app Folder Structure): When an iApp service is deployed on BIG-IP, it creates a dedicated folder hierarchy under the partition (e.g., /Common/<iapp_name>.app/).

Object Naming Convention: Any configuration object (such as a virtual server, pool, or profile) generated inside that iApp resides inside that .app folder and reuses the template/application service name for the object itself (e.g., /Common/testhttp.app/testhttp), rather than appending suffix tags like _vs.

GUI & CLI Consistency: This path structure is visible across both the Configuration Utility (GUI) and TMSH (CLI).

The actions or steps required to address the topic covered in the description.

Check the configuration via either the GUI or CLI to identify whether an object was created by an iApp or not.
On the CLI when you view the configuration object 2 things are added to it when it is created.
In the path the name is reused and .app is added.
To name an object identifier is added such as _vs for virtual server.
Example: ltm virtual /Common/testhttp.app/testhttp_vs
