Hi. Curl is the command to help with this. There should be plenty of resources on how to use curl for constructing monitors.
Re your specific query, are you trying to ascertain if an upstream proxy is working? See the following post, should help.

If you would like to assign monitor to pool or pool member you can just create new based on http or http head and then set Alias Address to google or tcs, not sure if it has to be IP or can be FQDN. Check as well this one https://devcentral.f5.com/s/feed/0D51T00006i7WeGSAU Piotr
