Can I do this??

Can I build a scripted telnet monitor that will log into a node, authenticate, run a command, and if an expected string is returned mark the node as available? And if not, mark it down????

Hey Deb,

 

 

Is expect installed on any version of BIG-IP? I am trying to create an SFTP monitor for a customer. I have a version working using public key authentication, but I'm thinking they'll ask for user/pass support next. This could be done using expect (or Perl's Net::SFTP module) (Click here), but I don't see expect installed on 9.2.4 or 9.4.4.
