When you add an LTM to the GTM config you specify the IP address of the LTM itself (i.e. non-floating).

 

The GTM needs to use the non-floating self-ip so that it knows exactly which device it's communicating with, plus it wants to gather information (Via the 3dns daemon) continually whether the device has active traffc-groups on it or not.
