A global SaaS provider uses GTM to manage DNS for its application. The company has data centers in multiple regions, and the network team has configured both least connections and RTT load balancing options. The team wants to ensure that users are directed to the data center with the fewest active connections to maximize resource utilization, but also wants to avoid sending users to a data center with excessively high latency. Which configuration approach should the administrator use?

A global enterprise runs a latency-sensitive application across data centers in London, Mumbai, and Sydney. The network team has configured GTM with both RTT and topology load balancing options. The team wants to ensure that users in the Asia-Pacific region are always directed to the Sydney data center, while users in Europe are directed to the London data center, regardless of real-time latency measurements. However, if a regional data center becomes unavailable, traffic should fail over to the next closest data center. Which configuration approach should the administrator use?

A global media company operates data centers in New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago. The company wants to use GTM to direct users to the data center with the lowest latency. However, the network team has observed that the RTT measurements between the LDNS and the data centers are highly variable, causing users to be bounced between data centers as latency measurements fluctuate. The team wants to reduce this instability while still directing users to the lowest-latency data center. Which configuration approach should the administrator use?

A global e-commerce platform uses GTM across four data centers. The operations team has observed that during flash sales, one data center becomes overwhelmed while others remain underutilized. The team wants to implement a load balancing method that responds to real-time server load. However, the network team has expressed concern that dynamic methods require continuous probing, which adds overhead to the DNS infrastructure. The team needs a solution that balances the need for real-time load awareness with the desire to minimize probing overhead. Which approach should the administrator recommend?

A financial services company operates two data centers with a 70/30 capacity split. The primary data center in Chicago has higher capacity than the secondary in Dallas. The company wants to ensure that traffic is distributed according to this fixed ratio, but also wants to avoid the complexity of dynamic monitoring. Which GTM load balancing method should be configured?
