Query ARP cache

Hi,

 

I would need to be able to query the ARP table of our F5 BIG-IP for my python script, but I'm unable to figure out the proper REST URI for that. The platform version we are using is 11.5.3

 

I am trying to use use the GET method with the /mgmt/tm/net/arp URI, but I am only getting the following reply: {u'kind': u'tm:net:arp:arpcollectionstate', u'selfLink': u''}

 

Could you advise what I am doing wrong?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Regards,

 

Karoly

  • Some quick-and-dirty testing indicates this will only display static ARP entries, but not dynamic entries.

     

  • You need to add a /stats to the end of your above mentioned path:

    /mgmt/tm/net/arp/stats
