Lab 2 Configure Clustered BIG-IP with Declarative Onboarding
==============================================================

In this lab we are going to configure **BIGIP-02**.  The build out will be similar but the declaration will be slightly different than **BIGIP-01**.  There are some device specific items, like
Self-IPs that will be different between devices.  These differences illustrate examples where templatizing would work exceptionally well.  For these situation you could use a templating tool that
an orchestrator may provide such as Jinja2 in Ansible.

Below is our declaration for **BIGIP-02**.  Copy **all of** the declaration to be used in Postman.

    }


Next, launch Postman on your jump host and copy the JSON declaration to the body of the Postman application.

..  note::  Clustering via declarative onboarding can take a couple of minutes to sync and establish, this is normal behavior.

Return to either **BIG-IP** in Chrome and check the cluster configuration and status.  Both units should be clustered with all onboarding objects present from the declaration.
