Hi,

 

Base on traffic group fail-over method. The default thing is load aware.

 

From the KB mention below.

 

The BIG-IP system implements load-aware failover by calculating a numeric, current utilization score for each device, based on numeric values that you specify for each device and traffic group relative to the other devices and traffic groups in the device group. The system then uses this current utilization score to determine which device is the best device in the group to become the next-active device when failover occurs for a traffic group.
