Hi Kansoh

It's not another port, just tcp port 10222. And monitor is template tcp monitor on F5.

Instances are thread flowing tcp port 10222.

Do you have any ideal about this?

Thanks

        Hi ngockq , 
        No it's different as you'll add a customized port to make your F5 device monitor only on it.
        that what i mean by Alias. 

        IF port 10222 down in backend servers , F5 monitor will mark this pool member down. 
        because it monitor now looks for TCP port 10222 only.
