NimbostratusHTTPS Monitor with POST request
Hello all i have a pool containing 4 members from 2 physical nodes on 2 different ports: Ex:
10.10.10.44:9443
10.10.10.44:9444
10.10.10.45:9443
10.10.10.45:9444
I need to create a new HTTPS Monitor to check the health of each pool members (All have the same URI to for the same Application)
The Dev Team provided us with the following Health Check Request for a Login request:
When i do a "Curl -k (URL)" of the above link, I can see that the page loads properly on the CLI and i receive a "200 OK" response, which I am using as a "receive string" value for now.
When I try to do the same in the HTTPS Monitor configuration, as per the following two tests, it was not working at all, Monitor stays down
Test 1: (HTTP 1.1)
GET /R13-Live/servlet/BrowserServlet?&method=POST&command=login&signOnName=INPUTT&password=123456&requestType=CREATE.SESSION&counter=0 HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: app.test\r\nConnection: Close\r\n\r\n
Test 2: (HTTP 1.0)
GET /R13-Live/servlet/BrowserServlet?&method=POST&command=login&signOnName=INPUTT&password=123456&requestType=CREATE.SESSION&counter=0\r\n
Working Test:
when i try only the Main URL Part, it is working:
GET /R13-Live/servlet/BrowserServlet\r\n
How should i create my Send Request with the provided Link, as i think the POST method in it is creating the issue
Thanks,
Regards,
I have tested it::
On GUI:: Local Traffic ›› Monitors ›› test
Send String::
GET /R13-Live/servlet/BrowserServlet?&method=POST&command=login&signOnName=INPUTT&password=123456&requestType=CREATE.SESSION&counter=0 HTTP/1.1\r\nUser-Agent:BigIP\r\nHost: 10.10.10.102\r\nAccept: /\r\n\r
In packet captures, I see request going out to server::
GET /R13-Live/servlet/BrowserServlet?&method=POST&command=login&signOnName=INPUTT&password=123456&requestType=CREATE.SESSION&counter=0 HTTP/1.1
User-Agent:BigIP
Host: 10.10.10.102
Accept: /
Now Its up-to Server what response it can generate.

What's the whole curl command you're using?
Hint. Do a curl, include the -v (verbose) flag and then check the output of what it's sending against what you're sending.

First off, I thought you said you needed to do a POST...
You're explicitly doing a GET all 3 times with an HTTP parameter method=POST (Which is not the same as actually doing a POST)
