LTM 11.1.0+ HTTP monitor with native NTLM auth

Here's the monitor, I'll dump the HTTP response in a bit ...

 

 

ltm monitor http QA_ShortURL_Monitor {

 

defaults-from /Common/http

 

destination *:*

 

interval 30

 

partition WebSystems

 

password "****"

 

recv "StatusCode: 200, Ok"

 

send "GET / HTTP/1.1\\r\\nHost: qa-shorturl-2008-f5"

 

time-until-up 0

 

timeout 61

 

username DOMAIN\\svc_f5HTTPMonitor

 

}

 

 

I had to remove the trailing \r\n as it was causing malformed headers in the HTTP request which it appears is a known bug when using NTLM auth on a monitor.

 

 

Thanks
