Heath Monitor with in the Send String

Hi All,

 

 

Is there a way to imbed a in the send string? I have an application that likes the text separated that way and the BigIP doesn't support just pasting in a with the rest of the text...

 

 

I tried a "%9", but that didn't help...

 

 

Thanks.

    That does work. Thanks!

     

     

    Was that in the docs somewhere that I missed?

     

     

    Thanks Again!

    I was going off the examples that use \r for a carriage return and \n for a new line. I'm not sure what language the backslash escape control characters are from exactly though. They come into play with Perl and *nix shell scripting. Wikipedia (Click here) states it's a Computer Escape Code??.
