LC Hardware

Hi Pls correct me if I am wrong , for load balancing of ISP we use Link controller , How we select hardware series of BIG IP , It depends how much the WAN Link bandwidth and also how much traffic throughput or No of connection accessing inbound/outbound servers ?

 

In short what are the ideal parametesr to be in consideration while selecting Link Controller BIG IP hardware ?

 

 

  • If you going to choose the 10.2 version, you will need to pick hardware that has at least 1GB of RAM. Here is a link to the F5 release page. It has links to the information you are looking for: https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/lc_9_x.html
