The host (hypervisor) has both vlans coming into it, but at the VCMP guest level you only share the specific vlans with the vcmp guest that needs them. This way external vlans for both vcmp guests are separated. If you are doing active standby on nexus switches, you can still do the mesh since the F5 will see the interface to the standby switch as down until switch goes up as active.
