Auto-discovery of virtual servers in other route domains

Gentlemen, I'm doing an implementation of GTM module synchronization, but in different sites using different domain route and are not the route domain 0.

 

I wonder what the solution to make this timing since the GTM module does not synchronize with Route Domain other than 0.

 

I wonder if there is some explanatory material on Auto-discovery of virtual servers in other domains route, and how it works.

 

Thank you ! ;)

    When a BIG-IP GTM system performs auto-discovery, the system discovers virtual servers within the route domain being queried. You can configure auto discovery to discover virtual servers for all route domains on the BIG-IP system by enabling the expose-route-domains option. To enable the expose-route-domains option for a BIG-IP server, perform the following procedure:

     

    Log in to the Traffic Management Shell (tmsh) by typing the following command: tmsh

     

    Enable the expose-route-domains option for a BIG-IP server by using the following command syntax:

     

    modify /gtm server expose-route-domains yes

     

    For example, to enable the expose-route-domains option for a BIG-IP server named BIG-IP-1, enter the following command:

     

    modify /gtm server BIG-IP-1 expose-route-domains yes

     

    To save the configuration, type the following command:

     

    save /sys config gtm-only

      Brad, good night. In the scenario we have two sites with IP address blocks configured to route different domains. I wonder if, when I use the command [modify / gtm expose server-route-domains yes], the sync is done by the route domain 0. You know me explain how it works? Thank you

    Gentlemen, thank you, I understand the explanations, however, when it comes to this self discovery of virtual servers (for a timing scenario), by which route domain iram travel on the timing data?
