10 Why Should You Buy BIG-IP LC? Have you considered multiple ISPs for high availability? Is your ISP not meeting the desired bandwidth and reliability Service Level Agreements (SLAs)? Is your business losing money from ISP downtime? Are you considering BGP as an multi-homing option? Are you always looking to add extra ISP lines or bandwidth to solve your business problems? Are some of your mission critical applications getting starved out of bandwidth?
