2 DCs with 2 gtm listeners - DC1 Active and DC2 standby.

if I have two DCs active and standby hosting same applications and has two separate GTM devices ( 2 separate listeners) then how do we forward the traffic.
application delivery

sorry by active standby what I meant is one DC is most preferred and other is least preferred. Now traffic from Local DNS what mechnism does it follow check the performance and forward the request.

The check is done by the DNS Client not the DNS Server/GTM.
So it depends on the client.
