CirrusWeight Vs Score for Topology Records
Hi community! I am getting confused by the the terms weight vs score that can be associated to topology records. As I understand them, they should mean the same thing, however, in some documentation ...

CirrusBoth statements says the same thing...
When you configure topology records, you will be asked to give weight for that record. This is to give the precedence to the records if duplication exists. In tmsh, the weight parameter is called score.
For example, Consider below topology records,
ldns: subnet 192.168.0.0/16 destination: London weight 100
ldns: subnet 192.168.0.0/16 destination: Spain weight 200
These topology record have same LDNS and F5 BIG IP selects the topology based on lowest weight. That means BIG IP uses the London as destination.
Hope this helps.
