Nslookup www.f5.com returns multiple A records

Hello everyone:

 

I am studying F5 GTM recently. I think F5 official website should deploy GTM. When I tested with nslookup, I found that I returned 3 A records. How is this implemented? As I know so far, GTM will return based on LDNS and an optimal A record.

  • If you want to see multiple A records to your application, then you need to have multiple VIPs with different IPs. In a nutshell,

     

    Pool load balance nodes.

     

    VIP can load balance Pools.

     

    GTM can load balance VIPs.
