DNS request counting on GTM

Hi

 

Can you advice please whats the best way to get statistics out from BIGIP GTM to integrate it with an external monitoring system? So Im interesting to follow DNS request counts quite closely (seconds), which SNMP might be too slow for that, and not sure if this possible using sflow for instance? Also if can use iRULEs for more precise matching?

 

Thanks

    Best way would be to check the statistics on the WIP configured on the GTM. You can either manually check it or possibly utilize iControl Rest to pull that data whenever needed using a simple script.
