Hi Cory,

 

I missed out your above reply... i do agree with you that DNS doesn't really have much impact on my situation but the main reason to use GTM as a DNS over the Generic DNS (BIND, MS DNS) is that it monitors the availability of ISP links and based on that it provides the IP address of the active link. That is the reason I am concerned about tweaking the configuration and minimizing the TTL to avoid a situation where the user tries to connect to the IP of the unavailable link or else i set the GTM to reply back with all the possible IP addresses.

 

Regards,
