BIG-IP Notes

The attached BIG-IP-ILX-WebSSH2-20180210-0.2.0.tgz file may be imported to as an iRulesLX Workspace on a BIG-IP v12.1+ with iRules LX provisioned.

iRulesLX streaming interface is not yet supported, so this will just run as a daemon essentially.

Instructions for deploying on a BIG-IP may be found at: https://github.com/billchurch/WebSSH2/wiki/Deploying-to-a-BIG-IP-running-12.1-or-13.0
