Here is an F5 article:

Allowing automatic updates through a firewall

If the BIG-IP system is behind a firewall, you should allow access for the following F5 host servers, DNS servers, and ports, so that the system can complete the update tasks:

Host servers
    callhome.f5.com port 443
    activate.f5.com port 443
DNS servers
    The firewall should allow port 53 access for the DNS name servers configured for use by the BIG-IP system
