F5 LTM Sizing - sharepoint skype exchange with ssl passthrough
Hey guys, short question. I am actually thinking about the sizing of a pair of F5 LTMs for a customer and i got some basic Information about the application/Service. We are talking about SharePoint/Skype/Exchange and i've got many datas directly from the server guys. I have this informations: L4 Connections/s Skype: unknown SharePoint: 1.600.000 L4 HTTP Req. Skype: ~25000 SharePoint: ~15000 L4 concurrenct conns. Skype: unknown SharePoint: ~1.600.000 L7 Connections/s Skype: ~900.000 Exchange: ~360.000 SharePoint: ~140.000 What model would you prefer? And there are also thoughts about using the F5 LTM in mode ssl passtrough. So the SSL Traffic would just pass the LB. Would that change anything in the needed size of the LB model/series?
