Nimbostratusread packet for specific information
is it possible for the f5 to search packets for a specific text string (say "node down") that a node in a pool would return to the host accessing them?
we have a 3 tiered app that while...
The short answer is yes, you can dig into the payloads and look for strings. Does the LTM have any visibility to the third tier at all? Would it be possible to use a custom monitor to check that tier for health, marking services up or down accordingly?
Another approach would be to stage a script someplace else, periodically check health on that back end, then issue a command via iControl to take services down.
