Hi Oreoluwa,

 

You can change monitor's interval/timeout values to 8/25 or 10/31.

 

You must verify that monitor settings are properly defined for your environment. F5 recommends that in most cases the timeout value should be equal to three times the interval value, plus one. For example, the default timeout/interval ratio is 5/16 (three times 5 plus one equals 16). This setting prevents the monitor from marking the node as down before sending the last check.
