Formation

Configuring BIG-IP DNS (formerly GTM) (TRG-BIG-DNS-IL)

Durée

2 jours

Course Overview

Ce cours offre aux professionnels du réseau une compréhension fonctionnelle du système BIG-IP DNS tel qu’il est couramment utilisé. Le cours couvre l’installation, la configuration et la gestion du système BIG-IP DNS, et comprend une combinaison de conférences, de discussions et de travaux pratiques.

Moyens Pédagogiques :
  • Quiz pré-formation de vérification des connaissances (si applicable)
  • Réalisation de la formation par un formateur 
  • Formation réalisable en présentiel ou en distanciel
  • Mise à disposition de labs distants/plateforme de lab pour chacun des participants (si applicable à la formation)
  • Distribution de supports de cours officiels en langue anglaise pour chacun des participants
    • Il est nécessaire d’avoir une connaissance de l’anglais technique écrit pour la compréhension des supports de cours
Moyens d’évaluation :
  • Quiz pré-formation de vérification des connaissances (si applicable)
  • Évaluations formatives pendant la formation, à travers les travaux pratiques réalisés sur les labs à l’issue de chaque module, QCM, mises en situation…
  • Complétion par chaque participant d’un questionnaire et/ou questionnaire de positionnement en amont et à l’issue de la formation pour validation de l’acquisition des compétences

Ce cours est destiné aux administrateurs système et réseau responsables de l’installation, de la configuration et de l’administration des systèmes BIG-IP DNS.

There are no F5-technology-specific prerequisites for this course:

However, completing the following before attending would be very helpful for students with limited BIG-IP administration and configuration experience:

  • Administering BIG-IP (TRG-BIG-OP-ADMIN) instructor-led course
  • F5 Certified BIG-IP Administrator

The following web-based courses, although optional, will be very helpful for any student with limited BIG-IP administration and configuration experience:

  • Getting Started with BIG-IP web-based training
  • Getting Started with BIG-IP Global Traffic Manager (GTM) web-based training

The following general network technology knowledge and experience are recommended before attending any F5 Global Training Services instructor-led course:

  • OSI model encapsulation
  • Routing and switching
  • Ethernet and ARP
  • TCP/IP concepts
  • IP addressing and subnetting
  • NAT and private IP addressing
  • Default gateway
  • Network firewalls
  • LAN vs. WAN

The following course-specific knowledge and experience is suggested before attending this course:

  • DNS resolution process
  • Experience configuring DNS content and resolution servers
  • DNSSEC
  • Provision the BIG-IP system for operation
  • Back up the BIG-IP system configuration for safekeeping
  • Describe how the Domain Name System (DNS) resolves host names into IP addresses
  • Describe how the BIG-IP DNS system can participate in the DNS resolution process
  • Use DNS Express on the BIG-IP DNS system to accelerate DNS resolution
  • Cache DNS query responses on BIG-IP DNS to accelerate DNS resolution
  • Load balance DNS queries to a pool of DNS servers and monitor pool health
  • Configure the key features of the BIG-IP DNS system to perform intelligent DNS resolution
  • Describe the LDNS probes used by BIG-IP DNS to support path-based load balancing
  • Configure a wide IP pool to use a path load balancing method
  • View and confirm DNS resolution behavior using path load balancing methods
  • Use static and dynamic load balancing methods to intelligently resolve DNS queries
  • Use persistence to effectively return one or more clients to the same virtual server on each query
  • Use manual resume to control certain load balancing behavior in the event of an outage
  • Configure and use load balancing decision logs to fine-tune and troubleshoot DNS resolution
  • Configure monitors on the BIG-IP DNS system in support of DNS resolution
  • Configure BIG-IP DNS to participate in the DNSSEC chain of trust
  • Configure limit settings on virtual servers, servers, and wide IP pools to temporarily direct client traffic away from resources that may not be performing at certain thresholds of efficiency
  • Configure iRules on a wide IP to customize intelligent DNS resolution
  • Describe the other wide IP types provided with BIG-IP DNS
  • Configure a BIG-IP DNS sync group
  • Apply all the principles learned throughout the course to configure a BIG-IP DNS system based on hypothetical specifications
  • Overview of the Domain Name System and DNS resolution flow through BIG-IP DNS
  • Configuring DNS listeners
  • Accelerating DNS resolution with DNS Express, DNS cache, and DNS server load balancing
  • Intelligent DNS resolution with wide IPs and wide IP pools
  • Using probes and metrics to assist the intelligent DNS resolution process
  • Intelligent DNS load balancing methods
  • Monitoring intelligent DNS resources
  • Logging GSLB load balancing decisions
  • Using DNSSEC
  • Integrating iRules in the DNS resolution process
  • Managing BIG-IP DNS sync groups
