    Is this monitor being run from a Link Controller? What is the target device of the monitor?

    Hi Cory,

     

    this monitor is for monitoring the contest link. And I'm using the default monitor that is big_link without any customization. What I did was create some custom monitoring LTM monitoring yes upstream with transparent following this documentation:

    Is the monitor target another BIG-IP appliance or some upstream router/firewall/etc?

    Hi,

     

    It was exactly this problem in gtm server IP configuration (bigip_gtm.conf) was old no longer being used.

     

    Many thanks for the help.

     

    Thanks to all

    Rodrigo, did you get this problem resolved? Seems like there could be some thread cross posting and I just wanted to confirm whether this problem is solved or not.

    i have the same problem. as i according the KB https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/13000/600/sol13690.html it worked now.

     

    i have get rid of 3 trouble.

     

    1, the expired certificates. so i renew a self signed cert, and sync it to /config/gtm/

     

    2, the wrong big3d version. i upgrade ltm+lc from 10.2.2 to 11.6, the upgrade tools just only upgrade software in /usr/sbin/ , but big3d services use the execution in /shared/bin/

     

    3, have legacy configuration item in gtm server section in /config/bigip_gtm.conf

     

    hope this information should help
