I have a similar issue with v13.

 

I have a listener IP with a default pool. What I am expecting is that local wideips are resolved but for records not existing locally the request will be forwarded to the pool member. What is happenning is that all requests are being forwarded. It does not check locally first. According to the v13 GTM implementations document, what I'm after should be possible.

Hi Leonardo, I had a call to support and the config is actually working as expected. I was testing from the GTM itself which does not work - it checks bind only I think, does not scan through the wideips. From a remote server the wideips are checked correctly before the forward occurs. All good. Thank you.
