SSH Proxy configuration

Hi,

We want to implement SSH Proxy on the F5, have someone more experience with these setups?

We have 2 SFTP servers in our DMZ which we want to make accessible from the internet with 1 VIP (Proxy SSH)

Source IP addresses must be send to the backend servers for whitelisting/blacklisting and IP banning users on the servers. Or is it possible that F5 can block certain IP addresses aftermultiple failed authentication attempts ?

 Remark: There are 2 authentication possibilities used

• SSH public/private key
• username/password

Creation of 2 VIPs is not an option, what are the possibilities of F5 to create this setup?

Thanks
