    Step 1. Deploy the F5

     

    Step 2. Deploy the Apache servers

     

    Step 3. ???

     

    Step 4. Profit!

     

    I kid, I kid. I couldn't help it. On a more serious note, you need to deploy the Apache servers into the "internal" VPC subnet so that they are reachable by the F5. Once you can ping your servers from the F5, create a pool and virtual server and you're ready to rock.
