Requirements

  • Must work with the WorldTech team to gain access to the required image
  • Must be able to create a virtual machine in GCP
  • Must have the needed firewall rules deployed allowing access to the internet, access to your managed devices, etc…
  • Must have the agent names provided to you by WorldTech IT
Note:
The IP address must not be deployed to BIGIP management subnets or BIGIP data plane subnets.
Each agent can consist of up to 10 BIGIPs to be managed.
Optimally, the number of agents to be deployed would be equivalent to the number of zones such that traffic to/from the agent to/from F5 devices does not have to traverse WANs nor firewalls.
NOTE - all members of a sync group must all be reachable from the same agent

Registering the Cloud.Red Agent

To register the device, all previous instructions must be complete and a user must be able to reach the agent’s private IP, over HTTPS on port 443, to register the Cloud.Red Agent.

Connect to the Agent’s HTTPS Console

In your web browser, visit the IP address of your VM. Accept the potential security risk and continue (this will look different in different browsers)

Continue Registration

Follow one of the following methods:
Copy the code displayed in the middle of the registration page seen in step 1.
Go to Cloud.Red and navigate to the agents tab on the left-hand menu.
  • In the top right corner, click new.
  • Paste the copied code.
  • Use the agent name provided to you by your WorldTech IT project manager.
Please contact WorldTech IT to complete the installation.
