Element Validators¶
About Element Validators¶
Validators are used on certain elements to define what user input is
allowable. The BIG-IP system always has the final say on what is
allowed, but if a validator value is given to the configuration
utility, it can present the user with a more useful error message
about the location of the error. Validator names are not
case-sensitive.
Validators¶
| Validator | Accepts | |
|---|---|---|
| FQDN | Domain name (RFC 1034) | |
| IpOrFqdn | ipv4, ipv6 or domain name (explicitly disallow “*”) | |
| IpAddress | “*”, ipv4 or ipv6 | |
| NonNegativeNumber | Integer >=0 | |
| Number | Any integer | |
| PortNumber | “*” or int value 0-65535 (inclusive) |
