iQuery with CA-issued SSL certificates

Hi Guys,

 

I have a question for BIG-DNS and hope one of you can give some clues.

 

I am setting up BIG-DNS and we plan to use CA-issued SSL certificates for iquery communication between the BIG-IP boxes (BIG-IP DNS and BIG-IP LTM).

 

Assuming we have all the required SSL certs installed on all the BIG-IP boxes, am I right to say that I do not need to run "bigip_add" between the BIG-IPs?

 

From what I understand, "bigip_add" is to exchanges iQuery Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates between the boxes for building up trust. But with CA-issued certs, I believe this step is not required?

 

Many thanks in advance.
