    I've used the Lab licensed VEs quite a bit and they will support clustering. I think the cost is $100-$125 including support so it's a good deal. Also if your non-prod environment is relatively light you can use them for that.

Hi Pete, I have selected Allow All just to cover all the bases, but as I understand it whichever option you choose in the port lockdown, the three required ports are permitted regardless, i.e. UDP/1026, TCP/1028 and TCP/4353. I wonder though, do the v11.3 LTM 90 day licences support HA, or do I need a 30 day fully featured licence, or a "lab" licence?
