Thanks Sam, I'll post the question on the Advanced Config/Design forum.
In our scenario the packets will always go to the F5 as it has a self IP on the server VLAN, so when it communicates with a server it's all via directly connected subnet thus a default gateway or other routing decision is not needed for either the F5 or the servers. I'm still unclear just what having a floating self-ip would buy us in this design (other than me being able to detect a failover pair!), but again that's probably a question best suited for the Advanced Config/Design forum.
Thanks,
