Do the following

 

Configure the network devices with more prirority for the vlans defined on the LTM's

 

On the interfaces connected to the F5 LTM's -

 

1)enable rootguard - so the LTM's cant be the root

 

2)Disable bpduguard on the interfaces (If you enable on the devices globally

STP link type - p2p

 

Uncheck(disable) the STP egdeport ans STP edgeport detection
