[rancid] Rancid with an F5

[Jeffrey d'Ambly]

I’ve updated my f5rancid script to use this one

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dotwaffle/rancid-git/master/bin/f5rancid.in

However it’s still not working. Is there something additional I need to do?

that script looks like it's built for v10 of f5's software... 'bigpipe' commands will no longer run, so you would need to change them to 'tmsh' commands. https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/13000/600/sol13697
