You can't load-balance an authenticated session against two completely
independent servers of any kind without authenticating against each
seperately.

You need to configure the BIGIP F5 so that they simulate 'sessions'. And
certain sources always get sent to the same Squid.

Sorry, I don't know how to help with the actual F5 config. Maybe someone
else will.
