Question
- As a Hybrid Signaling customer, do I engage with F5 Global Support or Silverline SOC?
What are hybrid deployments?
Hybrid deployments offer F5 customers the ability to use signaling functionality in an on-premises F5 appliance to enable DDoS attack mitigation on the Silverline cloud platform, based on conditions observed in the on-premises device/s.
The combination of these systems offers a powerful way to mitigate attacks that may exceed the capacity of a network where the on-premises device/s may be located.
Environment
- Silverline DDoS
- F5 BIG-IP
- Hybrid Signaling
- Hybrid Connector iApp
Answer
To better serve our customers, technical support is offered for both systems from two different perspectives:
- Silverline SOC is responsible for:
- Any configuration issues related to the portal configuration of the Silverline services associated with Hybrid Signaling.
- Any configuration issues related to the Hybrid Connector iApps that communicate with the Silverline platform.
- F5 Global Support is responsible for:
- Any configuration issues related to the on-premises appliance (VIPRION, BIG-IP, Virtual Edition) associated with Hybrid Signaling.
- Any configuration issues related to the Hybrid Connector iApp on the on-premises appliance.
