Pool node status

Hi,

 

 

I don't think there is a simple, F5-supported way to give unauthenticated access to just the pool stats page. However, you could create a guest login and use that. In the upcoming v11, you have the option of not enforcing the GUI's idle timeout on the dashboard using a checkbox under system>>preferences:

iRule based solutions which use an LTM virtual server to get the status:
