I agree with the config you said, but it is good for *.mycompany.com. its a subdomain and TLD. I have only top level domain .org like example www.mapmap.org where there is no company name or subdomain. Wanted to see how to achive in this scenario.

so basically originaly you have these records in godaddy:
mapmap.org IN NS ...godady name servers...
mapmap.org IN A ....you webserver public ip adress...

So in godaddy, you still need to delete "mapmap.org IN A ..." and create subdomain and alias such as:
f5dns.mapmap.org IN NS ... f5dc1 and f5dc2...
mapmap.org IN CNAME host1.f5dns.mapmap.org
