Pool member timeout

Hi,   I'm migrating from HA Proxy to Big-IP LTM and I'm looking for a way to set a server respond timeout on the pool member.   On my old HA proxy I can set a server timeout on the backend part...

    Yes you will need to create a TCP profile for the purpose. Assign it under virtual server settings in advanced view. You can use this profile across multiple virtual servers if they have the same setting.

     

    You cannot configure it on a per pool, or per member basis.

You can set the server side tcp profile independently from the client-side. Is that enough? As for HTTP response time itself... I'm not sure you can. You'd have to assume that the TCP idle time would catch that (Which unless you do somethign strange like setting really short TCP keep alive intervals, should do it).
