Incidentally, anyone who wants to know, F5 is a unix-based box, just like the others. Last we used the F5s, they were all running a slightly modified BSDI. And only slightly modified in packaging. As for the current F5 SIP load balancer, we tried it a few years back and it was a dismal failure. It wanted to do cookie-based SIP load balancing and only worked with certain SIP proxies.
