DNS_REQUEST

What would be a good general fail over Irule for a GTM WITH MULTIPE WIDE IP OR DATACENTER

Just wondering why you would need an iRule for this? Assuming you have multiple GTMs and you have them configured in a GTM sync group, that should provide the DNS redundancy needed.

 

Can you elaborate more on your environment and what is driving your question?

Well this is a new standup one GTM configured with two datacenters. what I am being ask what can be done in the event that one server is not available when dns request is comming in. So mind concept is have a A and B side of both datacenters with an Irule that checks availbility of the requested resource if not availbile send to B side
