What is the effect of binding a GSLB domain to a GSLB vServer?

• A. It enables GSLB domain resolution by that vServer.
• B. It prevents domain resolution.
• C. It ties domain to CS vServer.
• D. It is not required.

Answer: (A)

Binding a GSLB domain to a GSLB vServer makes that vServer authoritative for queries for that domain. When clients ask for DNS for that domain, the bound vServer uses its configured GSLB pool, health checks, and load‑balancing policies to return the appropriate A/AAAA records that direct traffic to the healthiest or closest GSLB-enabled endpoints. This is what enables the vServer to actually resolve the domain and steer traffic across global sites. If the domain isn’t bound to a GSLB vServer, that vServer won’t handle resolution for that domain. It’s not about tying the domain to a CS vServer, and binding is the mechanism that enables the resolution behavior by that specific vServer.
