Hi Dyobbs,

 

Here is the answer to your queries....

 

 

1. Yes F5 can do the load balancing across 6 links.

 

2. No F5 can not participate in BGP peering you have to terminate the connection on your router.

 

3. F5 will connect after the ISP peering Router and you have to make sure that each provider has its separate Router.

 

4. Terminate all the connections on ISP routers on your end after the router place F5-LC which is going to do the Link load balancing and after LC place your Firewall or UTM and this guy finally connects to your core switch.

 

 

Regards,
