A bit off-topic maybe, but let's consider this scenario:

 

  • BIND disabled in the DNS profile associated with the GTM listener
  • Sub-domain gtm.example.com delegated from LDNS to GTM
  • WIP named 'test.gtm.example.com' created on GTM
  • CNAME 'www.example.com' -> 'test.gtm.example.com' created in LDNS

Should the 'gtm.example.com' zone be defined on the BIG-IP at all, or should I just create a WIP? If it should be defined, should it be defined in ZoneRunner or in Local Traffic -> DNX Express Zones?
