Actual exam question for F5's F5CAB1 exam
Question #: 5
Topic #: 1
An administrator is in the process of reactivating the license using the interface displayed in the exhibit.

What is the address of the license server to which the BIG-IP device must be able to establish an outbound connection in order to use theAutomatic Activation Method?

Suggested Answer: D Vote an answer

When you chooseAutomaticas the activation method in the License , Re-activate screen, the BIG-IP device itself contacts F5'slicense activation serviceover the Internet.
For successful automatic activation:
* The BIG-IP must have outbound network connectivity (typically via the management interface).
* DNS resolution and routing must allow it to reach theF5 license activation host(the one shown in option D).
* The device sends its dossier and registration key to that service and receives an updated license file in return, which is then installed automatically.
The other hostnames in the options are not used by BIG-IP for license activation, so they cannot be correct in the context ofAutomatic Activation.
