Bringing the past into the future...
"Networks" wasn't always part of F5's moniker.  Back when F5 was born it was named "F5 Labs".  Then in 1999 the corporate types thought that Labs sounded too biotech-y so for our IPO, the name was changed to "F5 Networks" with an "Inc." thrown in for good measure.

When we thought up the idea for building a community area where we could throw ideas (applications, solutions, ideas, ...), well, "Labs" just seemed to fit.  So, we are reclaiming the "Labs" portion of F5's birthname.

Below you will find a list of projects in various states of completion.  The idea here is to get you all thinking about "the possible".  Please explore, contribute, and most of all, have fun!

We present you "F5 DevCentral Labs!"
