For ARS:
- Create an F5 farm for udp/111, tcp/111, and the port ars listens on
- Enable session persistence based on src ip (needed due to floating licenses)
- Configure a server group in ARS

For MidTier:
- Create and F5 farm for tcp/80 and tcp/443
- Enable session persistence based on src ip (needed because midtier
does not synchronize/use central store for session information)

When you configure the midtier as to what arservers to point to, there
are a couple of options:
- point it to the ars farm: this causes issues because all midtier
sessions go to the same arserver
- point each midtier server to the individual server

When working with the F5, you need the arservers to be on a network
that gives a route to the db that does not traverse the F5.  This is
typically accomlished using a back end network that the arservers and
db servers are connected to.
