F5 Monitor - Need help

Hi,

 

So I have this friend who want a health check based on this:

 

F5 should check for:

curl -d @"xml_test.xml" -H "Content-Type: application/xml" -X POST http://usabc-31.abc.com/wfc/XmlService

 

the response should be:

 

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>

 

 

<Kronos_WFC TimeStamp="10/24/2019 11:57PM GMT-06:00" version="1.0" WFCVersion="8.1.3.1531">

  <Response Status="Success" Action="ping" Object="System">

  </Response></Kronos_WFC>

 

 

which is the .xml file

 

Can you help me please to have a health monitor for this kind of scenario, btw usabc-31.abc.com is a server being load balanced on our F5.
