Failover based on number of interfaces available

Hi,   Is it possible to configure the ltm to failover to the standby, if less than number of interfaces in an etherchannel are up? I cant find any options for this.   Thanks

Depending on your version, you could either use Interface Failsafe or HA Groups. If you're on 10.1 or later, I'd strongly recommend using HA groups.

 

 

For interface failsafe:
