Deploy BIG-IP updates faster with F5 Insight and Ansible
Every monthly hardened release makes your fleet more secure. F5 Insight for ADSP shows which F5 BIG-IP instances need updating and deploys them manually or with Ansible collections and your own automation.
Frontier AI demands operational readiness
Exploit timelines are shrinking
Frontier AI is accelerating how quickly vulnerabilities can be discovered, analyzed, and weaponized. Security teams can no longer rely on traditional patch timelines when attackers now move from vulnerability discovery to working exploit in hours.
Release cycles are accelerating
F5 uses an AI code scanning harness to find and fix vulnerabilities faster. Each monthly hardened release closes more gaps before attackers find them. Teams with automated workflows get protection the day it ships.
Make every upgrade routine
Manual tracking, fragmented visibility, and one-off workflows make every software update a project. With visibility and automation, teams know what needs attention, can prioritize action, and deploy updates across your fleet with confidence.
F5 Insight for ADSP
F5 Insight helps teams turn complex application delivery and security telemetry into clearer operational guidance. It brings together observability, analytics, anomaly detection, and AI-assisted operational narratives so teams can better understand what is happening across your environment and where to focus next.
Additionally, F5 Insight better prepares organizations for the operational challenges of the Frontier AI era—improving how you monitor, troubleshoot, and manage your BIG-IP estate and enabling faster responses to emerging threats. As the time from vulnerability discovery to exploitation shrinks from months to hours, so does the patch window. F5 Insight enables teams to rapidly move through the see, understand, and act stages to stay ahead of bad actors.
Key capabilities include:
- Unified visibility across application delivery and security operations.
- Analytics and anomaly detection designed to help teams identify issues earlier.
- AI-assisted operational narratives that help explain what happened and what to do next.
- Fleet management capabilities to update and patch vulnerable instances and support more scalable software lifecycle operations.
Certified Ansible Collections for BIG-IP
Certified Ansible collections help teams automate BIG-IP operational workflows and reduce the manual effort required to keep environments up-to-date. Instead of relying on device-by-device updates, teams can create repeatable processes that support faster and more consistent execution across the fleet.
For organizations preparing more frequent releases, BIG-IP automation with Red Hat Ansible can help standardize common tasks, reduce human error, and make update workflows easier to run across complex environments.
Key capabilities include:
- Automating repeatable BIG-IP update workflows.
- Standardizing operational checks and common tasks.
- Supporting consistent execution across teams and environments.
- Reducing the time and effort required for fleet wide updates.
Pairing fleet management with industry-leading automation
Deploy as soon as possible to increase your protection. Use F5 Insight for fleet management with a built-in path from visibility to deployment or run Red Hat Ansible collections through your own automation. Every release lands fleet-wide in days, and runtime protection ensures your apps and APIs are protected while you patch them.
