Are you sure you need an EAV monitor for this and can't use HTTP? Try using this (change Path/Host as required) as the send string;-

POST /yourappath HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: 1.1.1.1\r\nContent-Length: 175\r\nContent-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n\r\n0011002344

and then set your recv string to the string you are looking for.

    This is the error i get after changing path and host. "value may not contain literal newline characters" the box did not take the monitor.

    IheartF5, Per the article, i tried on firefox and also got an error. I fixed it by creating the monitor in the tmsh shell. I will test with this. really hope it works. get back to you shortly.
