[Sidewinder] BigIP & Sidewinders

[Sidewinder moderated discussion list]

I worked on the site of the largest collection, in Australia, of F5/BigIP's
which were all connected in one way or another to Sidewinders.
We had triple paths all the way through the gateway.

The only problem we had with the F5's which at that stage ran
BSD was a bug in tcpdump which if used could crash a F5.
We were upgrading them all to the Linux version when I left.

We had to do some gritty customisations to make things work
the way we wanted to with regard to the Sidewinders but apart
from the pain of putting new paths through the network had
no real problems.

We didn't let the Sidewinders do any HA instead letting the
F5's do all of the work.
