Same as you would on a linux host:
echo "49152 65535" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range

Hm, so I have found that after a reboot the port range went back to using 32768 - 61000.
Furthermore, I'm seeing that the F5 monitors are reaching out on ports even lower than that (5612).

The source IP from the F5 is it's own self-IP on a port-channel interface. I'm not sure if that matters, but could there be another location where it's pulling its own source port range?
