Deploying F5 BIG-IP Virtual Edition in VMware Fusion 8

Deploying F5 BIG-IP Virtual Edition in VMware Fusion 8

At F5's DevCentral Community and at several VMware user groups we've had a lot of interest in deploying BIG-IP Virtual Edition using Developer Lab licensing.  Some people at VMworld asked if we would write/update our Fusion guide and any additional information so here they are:

Using the Developer license with the BIG-IP Virtual Edition, I can create multiple personal dev environments on my workstation easily simulating north/south traffic patterns with external client linux devices and internal lamp hosts.  And with other VMware environments, you can take the setup and easily migrate to an ESX environment for further SDLC development.  It's fantastic and everyone is loving using Fusion for BIG-IP "playgrounds" at F5.  If you have questions please let me know and I'll respond accordingly.

Hope this help everyone who asked about this.
