EmployeeIf you have the monitor script in GTM. You'd configure a monitor of type External and reference the script.
In this instance though, I'm assuming you have all the logic you need to check the CDN in the script. You mention an iRule above. Is your "script" actually an irule?
If so, you would then assign that monitor to a Virtual Server object (no the pool). I would assign no monitor to the pool.
With GTM, you can't set up a virtual server with an IP address to which you can assign an irule so if you're script is an iRule as opposed to a shell script (or PERL, etc..), then it won't work.
Maybe I'd need to know what the iRule is doing or looks like.
