This course gives networking professionals a functional understanding of the BIG-IP DNS system as it is commonly used. The course covers installation, configuration, and management of the BIG-IP DNS system, and includes a combination of lecture, discussion, and hands-on labs.

• Provision the BIG-IP system for operation
• Back up the BIG-IP system configuration for safekeeping
• Describe how the Domain Name System (DNS) resolves host names into IP addresses
• Describe how the BIG-IP DNS system can participate in the DNS resolution process
• Use DNS Express on the BIG-IP DNS system to accelerate DNS resolution
• Cache DNS query responses on BIG-IP DNS to accelerate DNS resolution
• Load balance DNS queries to a pool of DNS servers and monitor pool health
• Configure the key features of the BIG-IP DNS system to perform intelligent DNS resolution
• Describe the LDNS probes used by BIG-IP DNS to support path-based load balancing
• Configure a wide IP pool to use a path load balancing method
• View and confirm DNS resolution behavior using path load balancing methods
• Use static and dynamic load balancing methods to intelligently resolve DNS queries
• Use persistence to effectively return one or more clients to the same virtual server on each query
• Use manual resume to control certain load balancing behavior in the event of an outage
• Configure and use load balancing decision logs to fine-tune and troubleshoot DNS resolution
• Configure monitors on the BIG-IP DNS system in support of DNS resolution
• Configure BIG-IP DNS to participate in the DNSSEC chain of trust
• Configure limit settings on virtual servers, servers, and wide IP pools to temporarily direct client traffic away from resources that may not be performing at certain thresholds of efficiency
• Configure iRules on a wide IP to customize intelligent DNS resolution
• Describe the other wide IP types provided with BIG-IP DNS
• Configure a BIG-IP DNS sync group
• Apply all the principles learned throughout the course to configure a BIG-IP DNS system based on hypothetical specifications
  

This course is intended for system and network administrators responsible for installation, setup, configuration, and administration of BIG-IP DNS systems.

There are no F5-technology-specific prerequisites for this course: However, completing the following before attending would be helpful for students with limited BIG-IP administration and configuration experience:

• Administering BIG-IP (instructor-led course)
• F5 Certified BIG-IP Administrator

The following free web-based courses, although optional, will be very helpful for any student with limited BIG-IP administration and configuration experience. These courses are available at F5 University:

• Getting Started with BIG-IP web-based training
• Getting Started with BIG-IP DNS web-based training

The following general network technology knowledge and experience are recommended before attending any F5 Global Training Services instructor-led course:

• OSI model encapsulation
• Routing and switching
• Ethernet and ARP
• TCP/IP concepts
• IP addressing and subnetting
• NAT and private IP addressing
• Default gateway
• Network firewalls
• LAN vs. WAN

The following course-specific knowledge and experience is suggested before attending this course:

• DNS resolution process
• Experience configuring DNS content and resolution servers
• DNSSEC
  

• Overview of the Domain Name System and DNS resolution flow through BIG-IP DNS
• Configuring DNS listeners
• Accelerating DNS resolution with DNS Express, DNS cache, and DNS server load balancing
• Intelligent DNS resolution with wide IPs and wide IP pools
• Using probes and metrics to assist the intelligent DNS resolution process
• Intelligent DNS load balancing methods
• Monitoring intelligent DNS resources
• Logging GSLB load balancing decisions
• Using DNSSEC
• Integrating iRules in the DNS resolution process
• Managing BIG-IP DNS sync groups

Major Course Changes since v13
The Configuring DNS v14 course presents much of the same content as v13, with very minor additions including an explanation of the new EDNS0 feature.
