Custom Monitor using Send/Receive strings

Hello,     I have been trying to create a custom monitor that checks a certain internal site for it's availability by looking for a string on the page once the page is available. The word is "...
management
monitoring

Can you try the steps outlined here:

 

 

https://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/AdvDesignConfig.TroubleshootingLtmMonitors.ashx

 

 

Try sending a curl request from LTM to the pool member and check the response headers/content to see if they contain the string Password:

 

 

curl -v http://1.1.1.1/PEARL-ADMIN/admin/images/logo.gif

 

 

If that does contain the string Password, then you can run tcpdump to compare the curl request with bigd's monitor request.
