I think your boss was asking you if F5 is forwarding BPDUs to all vlans or only within the vlan where BPDU was received? On that depends how flexible you are creating redundand links.
1. In case of the common STP the second link between two devices will be blocked even if every link belongs to different vlan.
2. In case of "per vlan STP" you can have redundand link for every vlan.
I would also like to know the answer to that question. Actually, I'm going to test it in the lab this week.
