Monitor your F5 BIG-IP Local Traffic Manager (LTM) platform remotely and gain insights into the health and performance of these devices.
Extension by Dynatrace
- Product information
- Release notes
Overview
The F5 BIG-IP LTM Extension uses SNMP to collect data remotely. Every minute, data is collected from F5 devices and is continuously analyzed by the Dynatrace platform. The new framework allows you to go beyond simple metrics and apply a topology-first approach to monitoring the LTM platform.
This is intended for users, who:
- Would like to monitor the health state and performance of their F5 BIG-IP devices
- Look for analysis support for Ops, IT and Network Admins.
This enables you to:
- Monitor infrastructure with a comprehensive dashboard
- Detect traffic anomalies and alert on them
- Take pre-emptive measures to avoid service degradations
Compatibility Requirements
F5 BIG-IP devices using SNMP v2c and v3
Details
This extension enables remote monitoring of the F5 BIG-IP platform and Local Traffic Manager (LTM) suite beyond simple charting capability. The unified analysis screens offer insight into the health and performance of the platform while the Dynatrace analytics engine can now baseline and alert on the most important indicators. The topology-first approach allows the DAVIS AI to investigate and correlate detected problems between components and find the root cause.
The extension package contains:
- SNMP data source configuration for metric ingestion
- Topology and relationship definitions for F5 Instances along with their Disks and Network interfaces, as well as Pools, Nodes, Virtual Servers, Traffic Profiles, and Rules of the LTM platform
- Overview dashboard template
- Unified Analysis screens for every entity
This extension is built on top of the new Extension 2.0 Framework.
More information can be found in the Product News Blog.

ReleaseDate
🚀 Improved in this version:
- Availability state displayed next to state detail in tables of Pool, Pool Member, and Virtual server entities
- Smoothing strategy added to charts of counter metrics to avoid inaccurate spikes
- "Monitored server" filter added to lists of pool members to allow browsing OneAgents and Custom Devices
🚀 Improved in this version:
- Better support for HA clustered devices.
- LTM Data is no longer collected for devices not in "active" failover mode. These devices will register only infrastructure metrics.
- Pool Members and Virtual Servers use IP Address & Port Number for unique entity creation. This means in a failover event, these entities are no longer duplicated and maintain a continuous view of performance.
🪲 Fixed in this version:
- Availablility alerts trigger false positives for Pool Members and Virtual Servers which are expected to be unavailable.
- All availability alerting now filters for data coming only from "active" devices. This means alerts are no longer raised for entities being unavailable on "standby" F5 devices.
- A deprecated OID was causing some Pool Member performance metrics to not be linked with entities
⚠️ Note:
- When upgrading from a previous version of this extension, all existing Pool Member and Virtual Server entities will be temporarily duplicated!
- This is an unavoidable side effect of changing the entity ID pattern (from using names, to using IP addresses) in order to provide support for clustered deployments.
🚀 Improved in this version:
- Chart colors match the value of their dimensions [RFE]
- Pool name filters now extend to their pool members too. This should reduce the amount of duplication when adding the pool member filtering.
- Example:
$prefix(/Common/)will include for monitoring Pools in the Common partition as well as their pool members.
- Example:
- Filtering fields now support up to 50,000 characters
- Graph charts connect gaps for a better view of the data
🪲 Fixed in this version:
- In very large environments, entity list screens would be empty due to loose entity selector condition
✨ New in this version:
- Larger feature sets have been split further to offer more flexibility with metric collection and DDU consumption
- Pool Members can create topology relationships to other Custom Devices. For example, when the Pool Member points to a DataPower device monitored through a different extension.
⚠️ Note:
- After updating, the newly introduced feature sets (around connectivity metrics) are disabled by default. These must be enabled manually otherwise the metrics are not collected.
🪲 Fixed in this version:
- Management Zones no longer need metric-based rules to include all data. Entity selector are sufficient.
🪲 Fixed in this version:
This version also works with ActiveGate 1.253
✨ New in this version:
- Configuration variables now support multi-line text of up to 10,000 characters
- F5 Traps are now processed as logs and linked to the F5 instance
- This feature relies on the SNMP Traps Extension
🪲 Fixed in this version:
- Virtual server unavailability alert message contains an invalid placeholder
- Direct update of previous configurations not possible
- Properties card of F5 Instance would display an error if the SNMP Traps extension is missing
Fixed in this version:
- Interface MAC Address removed due to invalid hex formatting from F5
New in this version:
- Quick actions to configure extension and read documentation are available on all default screens
- Messaging around list of monitored pools improved
- Create alert action enabled on all charts where possible
Fixed in this version:
- "Pool member name" property of the F5 Instance correctly renamed to "Node name"
No release notes
New in this version:
- "Node" has been renamed everywhere to "Pool Member" for clarity
- Screen Improvements:
- Instance, Pool Member, Virtual Service, and Pool screens have been redesigned
- Filtering by related entities has been added on all lists
- Topology Improvements:
- Pool Members are separated by port number
- Pool Members are automatically linked to OneAgent-monitored Hosts
Fixed in this version:
- Soft IRQ CPU reported incorrect values (metric key has been renamed to com.dynatrace.extension.f5.bigip.sys.global.host.cpu.softirq1min)
- Some charts on the Overview and Status dashboards would show incorrect values for absolute timeframes
Version requirements:
- Min. ActiveGate and Dynatrace version 1.241
Min. Dynatrace version updated to 1.237
New in this version:
- All entity screens use Breadcrumbs for easy navigation
- All entities use custom icons
- Two Custom Events for Alerting are provided for High CPU Usage on the F5 Instance and Virtual Servers
- All metrics now have readable dimension names
- The F5 Profile entity details page now hides metrics that don't apply to the profile type
Fixed in this version:
- F5 Profile entity list page not listing its members
- Update to metric selector formatting prevented users from deploying to Dynatrace 1.232+
Minimum platform requirements:
- Dynatrace ActiveGate 1.230
- Dynatrace Cluster 1.2300
