2. Click Add 3-DNS on the toolbar.

to the configuration.
Configuration notes
For the globally-distributed network configuration shown in Figure
6.1, on page 6-1, we have a 3-DNS Controller in each data center,
West Coast - DC and Europe - DC. The system we are configuring
is labeled 3-DNS_01, and is in the West Coast - DC data center.
The additional system is in the Europe - DC data center, and is
labeled 3-DNS_02.
Adding BIG-IP systems to the globally-distributed network
configuration
Now you are ready to let the 3-DNS Controller know about any BIG-IP
systems, or other servers, that you have in your network. Remember that the
3-DNS Controller load balances requests to the virtual servers managed by
the BIG-IP systems, EDGE-FX systems, or host servers in your network. In
this example configuration, we set up BIG-IP systems. For information on
adding EDGE-FX systems or host servers to your network, please refer to
Setting up servers, on page 5-6.
The following steps outline how to add BIG-IP systems to your
configuration.
To add BIG-IP systems using the Configuration utility
1. In the navigation pane, expand the Servers item, then click BIG-IP.
The BIG-IP List screen opens.
2. Click Add BIG-IP on the toolbar.
The Add New BIG-IP screen opens.
3. Enter the BIG-IP system information, and click Next.
4. In the Data Centers screen, select the data center where the BIG-IP
system is located, and click Next.
5. In the Configure Virtual Server screen, specify the information for
the first virtual server managed by the BIG-IP system, and click
Finish.
6. To add more virtual servers to your configuration, click Add
Virtual Server on the toolbar.
