The correct answer is A: BIG-IP 11050. The BIG-IP 11050 is a high-performance appliance that fits within a 2RU form factor, making it suitable for the 3RU constraint while delivering top-tier throughput among standalone appliances. The VIPRION chassis with 4 performance blades (option E) would deliver higher raw throu

Question

A customer wants the best possible throughput but only has a maximum of 3RU rack space. Which F5 platform should you recommend?

Options

ABIG-IP 11050
BVIPRION with only 1 performance blade
CBIG-IP 8950
DBIG-IP 8900
EVIPRION with 4 performance blades

Explanation

The BIG-IP 11050 is a high-performance appliance that fits within a 2RU form factor, making it suitable for the 3RU constraint while delivering top-tier throughput among standalone appliances. The VIPRION chassis with 4 performance blades (option E) would deliver higher raw throughput, but the VIPRION 2400 and 4800 chassis exceed 3RU (the 4800 is an 8U chassis). The BIG-IP 8950 and 8900 offer lower throughput than the 11050. A VIPRION with only 1 blade (option B) loses the multi-blade throughput advantage. Therefore, the BIG-IP 11050 is the best choice to maximize throughput within a strict 3RU constraint.
