copy config to DR F5

We have a pair of F5's in our DR colo.   We would like to replicate all the VIPs from the production F5 but, It will have different server IP addresses.   What is the easiest way to download the config from the production F5s edit the new server IPs and upload it to the Dr F5 pair?  Is this possible?

    easiest way depends on your tools and access. but a simple scp (https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K175) from one box to the other should be possible.

    in principe just overwriting the existing one and do a reload config should work, not sure on support when it fails. end of this video shows what you can do there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gt76detw_t4
