    if you just need to send traffic from the F5 to the internet you need a default route to the routing IP of the firewall.

     

    you do this at networking > route and then create a route for 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 to IP.

     

    if you need devices behind the F5 to get internet access through it you also need a virtual forwarding server that picks up the traffic from that network.

     

    BTW: if you bought your F5 from a F5 partner they might be able to give you quick start by setting this up and explaining it.
