DESCRIPTION
You can use the profile component to configure a custom authentication profile, or you can use the default
profile that the BIG-IP(r) Local Traffic Manager system provides for each type of authentication module.
An authentication profile requires one of the following configuration objects: ltm auth kerberos-delegation,
ltm auth ldap, ltm auth radius, ltm auth ssl-cc-ldap, ltm auth ssl-crldp, ltm auth ssl-ocsp or ltm auth
tacacs. The type of profile specified by the defaults-from option must match the type of configuration object.
EXAMPLES
create profile my_authentication_profile { configuration tacacs defaults-from tacacs credential-source http-
basic-auth enabled yes idle-timeout 30 rule _sys_auth_tacacs }
Creates a profile named my_authentication_profile for TACACS+ authentication.
list profile
Displays the properties of all of the auth profile components.
OPTIONS
app-service
Specifies the name of the application service to which the profile belongs. The default value is none.
Note: If the strict-updates option is enabled on the application service that owns the object, you cannot
modify or delete the profile. Only the application service can modify or delete the profile.
configuration
Specifies the name of an authentication configuration object. This option is required.
cookie-key
Specifies the key that the system uses to encrypt the session cookie assigned to each user using the
cookie-name option. The default value is f5auth. This option applies only to KRB Delegate profiles.
cookie-name
Specifies a session cookie that the system assigns to each user. F5 Networks recommends that each virtual
server use a different cookie name. The system encrypts the cookie using the value of the cookie-key
option. The default value is abc123. This option applies only to KRB Delegate profiles.
credential-source
Specifies the credential source.
defaults-from
Specifies the name of the authentication profile from which you want your custom profile to inherit
settings. This option is required.
description
User defined description.
enabled
Specifies whether this authentication profile is enabled. The default value is yes.
glob Displays the items that match the glob expression. See help glob for a description of glob expression
syntax.
idle-timeout
Specifies the idle timeout for the authentication profile. The default value is 300 seconds.
name Specifies a unique name for the component. This option is required for the commands create, delete, and
modify.
partition
Displays the administrative partition within which the component resides.
regex
Displays the items that match the regular expression. The regular expression must be preceded by an at
sign (@[regular expression]) to indicate that the identifier is a regular expression. See help regex for
a description of regular expression syntax.
rule Specifies the name of the rule that corresponds to the authentication method you want to use.
