http monitor with authentication failing

I am trying to setup a health monitor for our OnBase web servers that includes authentication. Doing captures I see it send a basic authentication and get a 401 unauthorized response. However then the F5 sends GET /OnBase/Login.aspx , NTLMSSP_NEGOTIATE and immediately sends a FIN packet. I have had the server team try to remove Negotiate from IIS Authentication which had no effect in what I'm seeing. Any suggestions?

    SSell, have you seen this solution re send strings with authentication? https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/2000/100/sol2167.html

     

  • Thank you very much Nathan. That has resolved the issue providing the server doesn't require Negotiate to be above NTLM in the IIS configuration.

     

    You want to make that comment an answer and I will select that as the answer?
