Multi-Homing BGP

Multi-homing with BGP (border gateway protocol) is a way to manage redundant links to multiple ISPs. However, this method requires intricate knowledge of BGP and coordination with the network engineers at each ISP.

The F5 BIG-IP® Link Controller offers an easier-to-manage solution for establishing redundant links, preventing outages that result from a single point of failure. It monitors availability and performance for multiple network connections. BIG-IP Link Controller directs traffic over the best link and ISP, ensuring the highest possible QoS and speed for users.
