    Gilbert, it could be a couple of things. Depending on your version of TMOS the send string may not be correct and may require more (or less) CRLFs at the end. Also, by default a HTTP Health monitor uses HTTP version 0.9 - could it be that the web server does not support this older version of HTTP?

     

    I'd take a look (if you haven't already) at the following two askf5 solutions - they should help:

     

    Testing an HTTPS monitor with user authentication from the command line (11.x)

     

    Constructing HTTP requests for use with the HTTP or HTTPS application health monitor

     

    Hope this helps,

  • Seems like i can do a get and make it fail by using a crazy Receive String. But it isn't using user the login and password. I changed the password and it still is being marked up. All I really need is authentication using the user and password defined in the https health monitor, im running ltm 11.6, any suggestions?

      Doesn't sound like the webserver is honouring the username and password. Best to capture with ssldump to see what's happening
