How to configure it is going to depend greatly on your needs. There is no vanilla setup other than setting them up to be in a GTM sync group. Are you wanting to globally load balance to different location depending on origin, i.e. topology? Are you wanting to load balance based on load in the data centers? Will round robin work? Do you need persistence?
