Specify BIG-IP service nodes
Every BIG-IP device that is to become an SFC controller, classifier, and
SFF in the service chain must reside in a REST trust group. Members of a REST trust
group are known as
service nodes
in an SFC
configuration. In our configuration, you need to add devices for a combination
classifier/SFF and a second SFF. The SFC controller is added automatically to the
list of service nodes. Here, you add each device to the REST trust group.
- From the SFC controller menu on the left side of the screen, selectService Nodes.
- In the upper left corner, clickCreate.
- Type the management IP address or the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) of a BIG-IP device.
- Type the user name for the BIG-IP system’sadminuser account.
- Type the password for the BIG-IP system’sadminuser account.
- ClickAdd.
- Repeat these steps for all the other BIG-IP devices you are adding.
After you complete this task, the REST trust group contains all service nodes that you added.
