Overall Satisfaction with F5 BIG-IP

We purchased a set of R5900 and R5600 appliances for our on-premises datacentre, which includes a load balancer, forward and reverse proxy, and SSLO functionality. We use SSLO in our DC for SSL offload and application visibility to copy decrypted traffic to our SIEM and IDS solutions. Application configuration is done using Ansible playbooks for speed, simplicity, and error-free configuration.

In-built API/programmability makes automation simple.
