Introduction

Hey all,

F5 301b v2 Objectives

Sun, 28 Apr 2024 20:14:22 +0800

These are the official exam objectives.

=================================================================
Section 1 - Troubleshoot Basic Virtual Server Connectivity Issues
=================================================================

Objective - 1.01 - Given a scenario, determine the appropriate profile setting modifications

1.01a - Given a scenario of client or server side buffer issues, packet loss, or congestion, select the appropriate TCP or UDP profile to correct the issue
1.01b - Given a scenario determine when an application would benefit from HTTP Compression and/or Web Acceleration profile

Objective - 1.02 - Given a sub-set of an LTM configuration, determine which objects to remove or consolidate to simplify the LTM configuration

F5 301b v1.1 Objectives

Sat, 27 Apr 2024 20:14:22 +0800

These were the official 11.5 objectives but modified by me. They have been cleaned up even removed in some cases.

This objective list I prefer over the current ones that are official.

================================================================
Section 1 - Maintain Application and LTM Device Health
================================================================

Objective 1.01 Given a scenario, determine the appropriate profile setting modifications.

1.01a - Given a scenario of client or server side buffer issues, packet loss, or congestion, select the appropriate TCP or UDP profile to correct the issue
1.01b - Given a scenario determine when an application would benefit from HTTP Compression and/or Web Acceleration profile

Objective 1.02 Given a subset of an LTM configuration or statistics, determine which objects to remove or consolidate to simplify the LTM configuration

F5 301b v1 Objectives

Wed, 26 Apr 2023 20:14:22 +0800

As far as I know these are the original objectives first published for the exam.
These are no longer official. They were found in the old study guide which can no longer be found.

=================================================================
Section 1 – Troubleshoot Basic Virtual Server Connectivity Issues
=================================================================

Objective - 1.01 - Given a scenario, determine the appropriate profile setting modifications

1.01a – Determine the effect of changing profile settings on application traffic
1.01b – Determine if changing profile settings will affect the LTM device or the application
1.01c – Explain the effect of modifying buffer settings in the TCP profile
1.01d – Explain the effect of modifying timeout settings in the TCP/UDP profile
1.01e – Determine the effect of TCP/UDP profile interaction with other profiles (e.g. OneConnect, HTTP, FTP, etc. For example, how modifying settings in TCP profile can break FTP)
1.01f – Describe how the source of traffic affects TCP/UDP profile settings that should be selected
1.01g – Determine the appropriate settings to use based on a given application behavior
1.01h – Determine the appropriate netmask settings when using a OneConnect profile

Objective - 1.02 - Given a subset of an LTM configuration, determine which objects to remove or consolidate to simplify the LTM configuration
