F5 Trunk port is connected to Cisco Switch Access Port
Any issues if F5 Trunk port is connected to Cisco Switch configured as Access Port? Will there be any loop formed?
If in case cable is wrongly patched as below.

It shouldn't do, because as said earlier 2 interfaces in a port-channel will never bridge. But I wouldn't enable port fast on a link to a BigIP. Portfast should ONLY ever be used when connecting to SERVERS that are incapable of bridging (i.e. Only have 1 interface is a good start :) )
NEVER connect a port fast interface to a switch device (And the BigIP should be considered a switch device as it will quite happily bridge interfaces if you tell it to).
