Hi Jason,
PTR records are not configured at the WideIP level. The WideIP only assigns A records. You'll need to configure the PTR records for the given IPs via ZoneRunner. Here is the section from the GTM manual regarding ZoneRunner: http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_gtm/manuals/product/gtm_config_10_2/gtm_zfd.html?sr=10399677.
I usually configure PTR records (for IPs assigned to WideIPs) to reflect their geography and purpose. For instance, if my WideIP was for www.example.com and we had a datacenter in Seattle, Dallas, and New York, I'd configure the PTR records to be sea.www.example.com, dal.www.example.com, and ny.www.example.com.
Hope this helps!
