Subscription and Quota Tracking

The Subscription view (xcsh.subscription) provides visibility into your F5 Distributed Cloud (XC) tenant subscription tier, resource quota allocations, and active add-on capabilities.

Subscription Tree View

When you connect and activate a valid profile, the Subscription panel appears in the F5 Distributed Cloud view container. The tree structure breaks down:

• Active Plan: Displays your tenant’s subscription tier (such as Enterprise, Standard, or Free Tier), renewal dates, and billing status.
• Resource Quotas: Displays real-time allocation limits and consumption counts for resources such as HTTP Load Balancers, Origin Pools, Namespaces, App Firewalls, and DNS Zones.
• Add-On Subscriptions: Lists optional platform capabilities (such as Advanced Bot Defense, DDoS Mitigation, and API Security).

Plan Details Dashboard

To view detailed subscription specifications:

1. In the Subscription view, select the View Plan action icon, or run xcsh.showPlan from the Command Palette.
2. The extension renders a subscription overview webview detailing:
   • Account tier and licensed entitlements
   • Base service limits
   • Provisioning history and contract terms

Quota Tracking and Utilization

Before deploying new services across your tenant, verify that your namespace has sufficient quota capacity:

1. In the Subscription view, select View Quotas (or run xcsh.showQuotas).
2. The quota dashboard visualizes usage percentages against allocated maximums:

+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| HTTP Load Balancers   [====================>..........]  24 / 35 (68%)  |
| Origin Pools          [============>..................]  18 / 50 (36%)  |
| App Firewalls         [==============================>]  10 / 10 (100%) |
| Namespaces            [========>......................]   4 / 15 (26%)  |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+

When quota utilization approaches threshold limits, the dashboard highlights the constraint to prevent deployment rejections.

Add-On Management

To evaluate or enable additional security and networking modules:

1. Right-click an inactive add-on listed in the Subscription view and select Activate Add-on (or run xcsh.activateAddon).
2. The extension initiates the activation request with the tenant management API and refreshes your entitlement status upon completion.
