CumulonimbusThe monitor times out after 16 seconds if unsuccessful, and will not try again until after 1200 seconds, making it, effectively, ineffective in catching a service status change soon enough.

Interval: 5 seconds;
-
Timeout: 16 seconds.
as it is hardly normal for the monitor to take 1200 seconds to receive a response, and the timeout value should be 3 times the interval as recommended by F5.
