Personally, I really like the idea of specific forwarders for specific types of traffic. This allows you to manage things way more cleanly. BigIP will handle these types similar to a firewall: the most specific virtual server matches first. So you could so something like:

 

 

0.0.0.0:ftp

 

0.0.0.0:DNS

 

0.0.0.0:0 (everything else)

 

etc.

 

 

This would allow you to manage your outbound FTP in a specific way, vs. DNS, vs. whatever else.
