How do u mean? The load balancing is performed by resolving a name to ip... Resolving an ip to different names as in lookin up PTR records probably isnt possible with gtm, and im struggling to thunk of an application for it to do so... A PTR should always have a canonical name as its resokution... Having more than 1 at a time doesnt make sense...
