What are the steps to implement Zipkin tracing across a cluster?

I am trying to implement Zipkin tracing (instead of the default Cassandra tracing) for Cassandra CQL calls and the trivial case of running a Zipkin server and single Cassandra node on the same host/docker is well documented and I have tested this successfully.

I am now trying to expand the trace collections across a full cluster of nodes (12x nodes, 2x DC's C*=3.11.7) with a separate Zipkin server & its own Cassandra3 backend - also known as Zipkin across C*.

I am unable to find any documentation that shows the components or steps necessary to implement Zipkin tracing across a C* cluster. Has anybody implemented such a tracing solution and/or can anybody provide some guidance as to the steps necessary?
