Link controller and Traffic Forwarding (DNS)

hi guys, hope you can help as usual.

 

 

I'm deploying a Link controller but I want it to only reoslve WIDE IP configured and let already existing DNS to handle other requests.For example, say we have one domain.com running in the site and there's a WIP:app01.domain.com. I need the bigip to resolve only app01.domain.com but www.domain,com (an other different than the one in the WIP). for those exlcuded cases I need the LC to let the other DNS to work that.

 

Looking for information on ASKF5 i found that I can configure the LC in brdige mode:

so that it can forward DNS request to other resources. Here's where I'm little confused because it states that I need to create a listener using the IP address of DNS server. Do i have to change the IP of the DNS to other because the BIG-IP is using it? or Have I need to create a pool with the DNS within an associate it to the Virtual Server automatically created when you add a listener (the one with no monitor)?

 

i'm testing this in a lab enviroment.

 

So confused.

 

 

Thanks in advanced
