Hi All, I'm new to F5, can someone please help me on below query. I am planning to make few changes on the health monitor on LTM for particular URL's. Do I need to make any changes on GTM in regards with this? How the communication between LTM and GTM works? Is it only on the basis of DNS or does the GTM monitors the end nodes as well? Regards, Sanket

It depends on your set up. If the GTM is relying on the status update provided by LTM, changing just the LTM will suffice. Usually, just changing the LTM would be sufficient. However, just make sure there are no separate monitors from GTM. You may want to check out this link and SOL14227.
