F5
Configuring BIG-IP APM
Access Policy Manager
À propos de ce cours
Access Policy Manager turns BIG-IP into an access-control and identity gateway, securing how users reach applications. This course covers building access policies with the visual policy editor, authenticating users against Active Directory or RADIUS, and granting or denying access by conditions such as group membership, geolocation and endpoint posture. It addresses SSL VPN and network access, per-application layer 4 and reverse-proxy layer 7 access, remote desktop access, and single sign-on by credential reuse or SAML federation, as service provider and identity provider.
This opens Red Education's F5 training page, not a booking form for this course. When you get in touch, quote the course name, Configuring BIG-IP APM, and if you would like me to teach it, ask for me by name: instructor allocation stays with Red Education and depends on schedule and region.
Prerequisites
- F5's course page states no formal prerequisite.
Certification relevance
Related certification, by topic overlap (not a vendor statement): F5 Certified Technology Specialist, BIG-IP APM (F5-CTS, BIG-IP APM)
F5 does not publish a course-to-exam mapping on a public page: its certification-training page asks for a sign-in (checked 25 October 2026). This pairing is the instructor's reading of where the course topics and the exam objectives overlap, not a vendor statement.
No course awards a certification by itself: a credential comes only from passing the vendor's exam or assessment.
Recommended next course
No fixed next course.
F5 publishes no fixed course to follow this one. The module courses build on the same BIG-IP base, so the next course is the one for the module your team runs.
