Difference of F5 Trunk between SW Trunk is that:
F5 trunk is also knows as EtherChannel in CISCO. SW Trunk is allowing all Vlan to pass in one interface.

F5 Trunk:
In F5, A trunk is a logical grouping of interfaces on the BIG-IP system. When you create a trunk, this logical group of interfaces functions as a single interface. The BIG-IP system uses a trunk to distribute traffic across multiple links, in a process known as link aggregation. Also known as PortChannel/EtherChannel in Cisco.
Cisco Trunk:
In Cisco networks, trunking is a special function that can be assigned to a port, making that port capable of carrying traffic for any or all of the VLANs accessible by a particular switch.
