About This Podcast

This podcast was created as part of my preparation for the F5 ASM exam. This will be my third time recertifying as an F5 ASM Administrator. While my first attempt relied solely on the exam blueprint, official documentation, and demo BIG-IP instances, my current approach is more robust. I am now leveraging a combination of NotebookLM-generated tests and podcasts, alongside a comprehensive $900 F5 training course.
