The certs are located in  in the config/ssl/ sub-directories, which would
need to be download'd. I would think that functionality would be outside of
Rancid, but if you lost your LTM you would need them to rebuild a new one.
You capture their names as part of the config.  They are listed in the last
few lines.

There is a command in the BigIP devices (GTMs and LTMs) that captures all
the files and compresses them in a .ucs file.  Once they are created they
can be downloaded and used to restore a BigIP.
