http monitor post

For example: POST HTP/1.1\r\nUser-Agent:tiger_test\r\nHost:[ip:port]\r\nF5Heartbeat:true\r\nConnection:Keep-Alive\r\n\r\n

 

what's the mean of "nF5Heartbeat:true" ? I don't know what these parameters mean,;

    This is 

    *not
    HTTP monitor parameter. Its looks like you have hard-coded parameter 
    F5Heartbeat:true
    in monitor POST profile. Run below command on F5 device & paste result..

            curl -vk http://:

    It's not a parameter nF5Heartbeat:true.

     

    But it's an http header named F5Heartbeat with value true.

     

    By the way, I think that this monitor will fail as several things are missing :

     

    The uri is missing between the method and http version.

     

    HTP -> HTTP.

     

    If you choose to use POST, you must specify a Content-Type and Content-Length headers.

     

    And you must add post data in the body of your request
