Hi Darrell,

Here is the syntax I used: 

irb(main):001:0> bigip = F5::IControl.new("test-ltm-ve-03", "admin", "admin", ["LocalLB.NodeAddressV2"]).get_interfaces
=> {"LocalLB.NodeAddressV2"=>>}

irb(main):002:0> bigip["LocalLB.NodeAddressV2"].set_monitor_rule(["test-ubuntu-lucid-01"], [ { "type" => "MONITOR_RULE_TYPE_SINGLE", "quorum" => 0, "monitor_templates" => [ "icmp" ] } ])
=> nil
That sets the ICMP node-specific monitor for node test-ubuntu-lucid-01. I tested using version 11.0.0.1 of the Ruby iControl library on an LTM running version 11.1.0 build 2027.0 HF2. Hope that helps,

George
