Which iApp setting can help you identify which iApp was used to deploy an object on the BIG-IP device?

Question

Options

• AApplication template name
• BCreation timestamp of the object
• CConfiguration history of the object
• DBIG-IP license details

• B
  3% (1)
• C
  93% (37)
• D
  5% (2)

Explanation

Option C is correct because an object's configuration history on BIG-IP records the full lifecycle of how that object was created and modified - including which iApp template was used during its deployment. This audit trail is the definitive way to trace an object back to its originating iApp.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (Application template name) is misleading because while a template name exists as a property of an iApp Application Service, it is not a standalone "setting" you consult on an arbitrary object to identify its origin - that lookup happens through the history.
• B (Creation timestamp) only tells you when the object was created, not which iApp created it.
• D (BIG-IP license details) is entirely unrelated to object deployment tracking - licensing governs feature availability, not configuration provenance.

Memory tip: Think "History tells the story." Just like checking a document's revision history shows who authored it, the configuration history shows the iApp that "authored" the object on your BIG-IP.
