NimbostratusiControl REST query the state of a traffic group on a bigip.
I'm trying to figure out, in iControl, how to get the status of a particular traffic group on a give node.
When I query the traffic group, it just shows me that it exists, not if it's active or not on the node I'm working querying.
In my present configuration, I keep all traffic groups on one node or another which makes the device Acitve or Standby and can get that info from iControl, but I might change that in the future, so I want to get the state of individual traffic groups.

Running the following returns a fair amount of information about what device a traffic group is on and its state. (edited for clarity)
