NimbostratusGTM Datacenter Failover when external link is dead
I have two datacenters with a gtm and pair of LTMs in each location.
I want to monitor my upstream provider to check to see if the external link is up or down.
If it is up, I would like to trigger a disable on that datacenter or resources so it goes to the other data center.
What would I need to use to accomplish this?

you have to create multiple gateway_icmp monitors with
-
monitor_icmp_8.8.8.8
- alias address : 8.8.8.8
- transparent : checked
-
monitor_icmp_8.8.4.4
- alias address : 8.8.4.4
- transparent : checked
...
create enough monitor to make sure this is not the remote web site which fails but the link
in your link, enable all these monitor with a minimum of 2 monitor (1 icmp + bigip_link)
