And wouldn't someone still be able to access the VIP by IP address (or another non-DNS method for resolving the FQDN to the virtual server IP address)?

 

 

I could be wrong, but I don't think there is a simple solution for doing this effectively on LTM as LTM doesn't have the ability to reference the GTM GeoIP database from an iRule. That might make a good feature request.
