Use Authentication HTTP Health Monitor

Good morning

 

I have a health monitor http checking the hoem page "login" of an application, the get has set user and password. My question is, this user and password are authenticated to the application once it receives the 200 OK, or these credentials are used only if to reach the homepage must be validated in some proxy?

 

I appreciate the help and suggestions you can give me.

 

Regards.

    Not sure if you've figured out how to resolve this yet, but your best bet may be to consider using an external monitor. There's a codeshare page that may help you out with ideas. There are some monitor ideas there based on cURL for web monitoring.

    you mean user name and password in monitor setting, don't you?

     

    if yes, i understand it is used to perform basic or ntlm user authentication.
