How HTTPS health monitor works in f5 loadbalancer

To create an HTTP 1.0 compliant request using the send string, you should use \r\n's to terminate lines and two \r\n's to terminate the GET request:

 

 

GET /alive.html\r\n\r\n

 

 

The application you're monitoring was probably responding with a 400 error with the single \n terminator you were using:

400 Bad Request

 

The request cannot be fulfilled due to bad syntax.[2]
