F5 Networks F5CAB1 Exam - Topic 3 Question 5 Discussion

Posted by Helene on Nov 25, 2025 at 09:02 PM

Which configuration file can a BIG-IP administrator use to verify the provisioned modules?

Suggested Answer: C

Provisioning settings define which modules are enabled and how system resources are allocated to them.

These provisioning declarations are stored in:

/config/bigip.conf

This file contains:

Full module provisioning statements

TMSH-equivalent provisioning configurations such as:

sys provision ltm { level nominal }

sys provision asm { level nominal }

It is the primary system configuration file that stores all active provisioning details.

Why the other answers are incorrect

A . /config/bigip.license

Shows licensed modules, not provisioned modules.

B . /config/bigip_base.conf

Stores base networking (VLANs, Self-IPs, routes), not provisioning.

D . config.ucs

A backup archive, not a live configuration file.

Thus, the correct file to review active module provisioning is /config/bigip.conf.

I agree with Arthur. C) is the most comprehensive for checking everything.

I feel like B) is the best choice. It’s specifically for provisioned modules.

A) /config/bigip.license could show modules too, but not sure.

I lean towards C) /config/bigip.conf. It's the main config file, right?

I think it's B) /config/bigip_base.conf. It makes sense for base configurations.

A) /config/bigip.license? Nah, that's just for the license, not the module provisioning.
SA

B) /config/bigip_base.conf? More like /config/bigip_base.confusion, am I right?
AV

D) /var/local/ucs/config.ucs? Really? That's like asking me to find the remote control in the fridge.
BI

I remember discussing the UCS files, but I don't think D) /var/local/ucs/config.ucs is the right choice here. It seems more related to backups.
TR
Trinidad 9 months ago
I’m a bit confused about this one. I thought it could be A) /config/bigip.license since it deals with licensing, but that doesn't seem right for modules.
FR
Frederick 9 months ago
I feel like I've seen a question similar to this in practice exams, and I think the correct file is C) /config/bigip.conf.
CH

I think the answer might be B) /config/bigip_base.conf, but I'm not entirely sure. I remember it being related to the base configuration.
TY

I'm pretty confident that the answer is C. The bigip.conf file is the main configuration file that should contain details about the provisioned modules.
KA

I'm a bit confused on the differences between these configuration files. I'll need to do some research to make sure I understand which one is used to verify the provisioned modules.
AD

I always get these BIG-IP configuration files mixed up. Time to brush up on my F5 knowledge!
AR
Arlie 10 months ago
C) /config/bigip.conf is the correct answer. This file contains the configuration for the provisioned modules.
EL
Elina 11 months ago
Okay, let me think this through. The bigip.license file is for the license, the bigip_base.conf is for the base configuration, and the config.ucs is for the UCS archive. That leaves C as the most likely answer.
VI
Vivienne 11 months ago
D) seems irrelevant. UCS files are for backups, not module verification.
JA
Jackie 11 months ago
Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I'll need to review the BIG-IP configuration files and their purposes to decide.
