NimbostratusReceive String problem
Hi,
I'm trying to create a regular monitor that would monitor a website with:
Send String: GET / HTTP/1.0
Receive String: Welcome Page
When I do telnet "IP of the Node"...

CirrostratusThere needs to be two carriage return - line feeds at the end of a GET request. The monitoring daemon appends one for you.
If you use HTTP 1.1, you can tell the server that LTM isn't going to try to re-use the TCP connection:
GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nConnection: Close\r\nHost: \r\n
You can test this using netcat from the command line of the BIG-IP:
echo -e "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nConnection: Close\r\nHost: \r\n\r\n" | nc 1.1.1.1 80
Replace 1.1.1.1 with the actual IP address of the server you want to test to.
