I guess I wasn't clear. The GTM sync group is not where my problem is, that part is clear enough to me. The problem is that the LTMs are in a Sync-Failover group with more than two members. When I go into BigIP > DNS > GSLB > Servers > Create, I get a drop down for BigIP (Single) and BigIP (Redundant). The BigIP (Redundant) only allows a single peer. So do I put all four traffic groups in as BigIP (Single) and use the floating IP for each traffic group? Or should I put in two LTMs in as BigIP (Redundant) and use the non-floating IPs? If the latter, how will the GTM handle a traffic group floating from one to the other pair?
