AltostratusCan anyone share the updated document for creating cname pools on later versions after 11.5?

Not sure how this article is relevant since the CNAME pool would need to be against a FQDN. For example anything you do with AWS the pool members would need to be a FQDN since the IPs change based upon whatever AWS wants to do.
The original article for 11.x was perfect. Right now though that advanced button is gone in the newer versions so no clue on how to do with strictly using a GTM.
What is odd - the LTM you can put pool members with a FQDN but not with the GTM Pool members those must be a IP or server.

That's not actually correct. You can use a Wide IP or an FQDN as a static entry as pool members.
In my work environment we use FQDNs when we don't care about health checking and Wide IPs when we do. We rely on federation with LTMs that are able to resolve our cloud endpoints and health check them. It's an object heavy configuration, but it does work.
