No operating system is an island

| The Traffic Management Operating System (TMOS) is the operating system we
| built for BIG-IP. It's an embedded device platform that is highly optimized
| for delivering applications over the Internet and other IP networks, and
| gives the device a performance edge. BIG-IP's popularity has drawn attention
| to TMOS, and while nearly all the notice has been positive, our operating
| system has sometimes been mischaracterized as a Linux variant. In fact,
| BIG-IP does include a copy of Linux, which runs alongside TMOS and provides
| certain management tasks, such as the command line and Web graphical user
| interface.
|
| However, the packets flowing through BIG-IP are not "touched" by Linux in any
| way. Every important system aspect is contained within TMOS and optimized for
| high-speed, high-volume traffic-management applications. TMOS has its own
| microkernel, the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM).
