Why each option
Advanced shell access on F5 BIG-IP grants unrestricted ability to create, modify, or delete LTM objects across all partitions system-wide.
Users granted advanced shell (bash) access on F5 BIG-IP have full, unrestricted access to all partitions and can perform any create, update, or delete operations on LTM objects without partition boundaries. This differs from role-based access, which can be scoped to specific partitions, making advanced shell the most privileged interactive access level available.
Advanced shell access is not partition-limited - it provides unrestricted access to LTM objects across all partitions on the system.
Advanced shell access provides greater administrative privileges than msh (management shell) access, not merely the same rights with an extended scope.
Advanced shell access is a highly privileged role restricted to specific authorized administrators and cannot be granted to all users.
