How To Use

Running Manually

In order to use the script make sure you have installed python3 The script uses the following modules:

• re
• os
• datetime
• tarfile
• sys

Then run local_runner.py with "bigip.conf" file as an argument
For example :

# python local_runner.py bigip.conf

To use more than one "bigip.conf" or "bigip_base.conf" file use $val$ as delimiter between files
For example :

# python local_runner.py bigip.conf$val$bigip_base.conf

Using Docker container

Download all git content ( only "local_runner.py" is not needed ),
Then build and run the container

# git clone https://github.com/Radware/F5-Migration.git
# cd F5-Migration
