    Hi,

     

    If you using the F5 for SSL, the expected number of SSL transactions per second (SSL TPS) is usefull. You need an appliance which can handle these SSL sessions.

     

    Other considurations are throughput, media type (copper, fiber).

     

    I would contact your local F5 reseller. They can help you size your appliance according to all of your whises.

i second Martijn, contact your F5 re-seller or F5 sales contact, specially for modules like APM there are no fixed tools or such.
