    Hi,

     

    Why you don't use route domain 0 for DNS, AD, NTP, ... (system part)?

     

    for information:

    The BIG-IP APM DNS configuration does not currently support route domains. All DNS communication must happen in default route domain 0. As a result, the system does not support multi-tenant configurations where name resolution on the BIG-IP APM must be separated per route-domain tenant.

    To provide access to BIG-IP APM resources in a multi-tenant environment, you must configure, in the BIG-IP APM system, a shared DNS server that is reachable by all tenants.

Hi Youssef,

 

Thank you for your response. I haven't considered using route domain 0 for the system part. In the meanwhile I've transferred the route domain to the default partition and am able to use the services I need. Thanks for thinking along!

 

Kind Regards,
