LoadBalance between the 2 Virtual IP via 3rd Virtual IP

I'm new to LoadBalancer thing and trying to sort out a problem. We have users from 2 different region accessing application server. Say User from Region A will access server via VIP 10.223.9.x and user from Region B via 10.223.11.x VIP. I want have all the user accessing same VIP and LoadBalance between two VIP. I can create new VIP "10.223.30.x" and all the user will be accessing this one and let the BigiP load balance between two Virtual IP. Is it possible to do that, if so how can I accomplish this?

I've put two LoadBalancer in my test environment now, where the 2nd one will act as my Global LoadBalancer. In the 2nd one, I've added the 2 VIP from other LoadBalancer as Node and created a GlobalVIP. Added those 2 node in to the Global VIP and set SNAT to AutoMap. Though I'm able to ping all the VIP from my new LoadBalancer (serving as Global), not able to access my webpage VIA Global IP. can you post your virtual server and pool configuration here?

My Nodes (All these are in Internal network)

192.168.1.2

192.168.1.3

192.168.1.4

192.168.1.5

Pool A PooL B

192.168.1.2 192.168.1.4

192.168.1.3 192.168.1.5

I've two Virtual Ip configured with external address

Vip1:-

Name : PrimaryVIP

IP: 10.223.9.233

Default Pool : Pool A

Vip2:-

Name: SecondaryVIP

Ip: 10.223.9.91

Default Pool: Pool B

Now I wanted create another Virtual ip with address 10.223.9.77 and the two VIP into that, for that I created a Global Pool with VIP as node

GlobalPool: 10.223.9.233, 10.223.9.91

In the GlobalVIP 10.223.9.77, set Default pool to Global Pool and accessing http://10.223.9.77 doesn't get me to the page.
