Importing DNS service into BigIQ

I have a bigip that has both LTM and DNS modules. I would like to only manage DNS from BigIQ, and not LTM. I know that when you import the DNS service from a device in BigIQ it asks you to import LTM first. Will this bring the LTM config into BigIQ? Is there a way to only bring DNS config into BigIQ and not LTM?

    I tested in BIG-IQ 5.4 and as you said you have to import first LTM. I tried to delete LTM service once is imported, but it is also denied, and you receive the next message:

     

    "The LTM service configuration is required if you are managing any other service configuration

     

    Maybe you can create an user with DNS viewer role therefore you will see only DNS configuration.
