Discover BIG-IP Device Service Cluster groups
You must add the BIG-IP devices configured in a DSC to the BIG-IQ system’s BIG-IP Device inventory before you can discover DSC groups.
All BIG-IP devices in a cluster must be running the same software version and the same settings for:
- Pools
- Traffic-groups
- VLANs
- Tunnels
- Route domains
The BIG-IQ DSC Groups inventory screen shows you a centralized view specific to DSC clusters.
Note: The Cluster Display Name displays on this screen only for managed BIG-IP devices in a DSC.
Important: BIG-IQ supports up to 8 BIG-IP devices in a DSC.
