adaptive monitor
1 TopicLocal Traffic Adaptive Monitoring
Hi All, Anyone ever try to used adaptive monitoring on F5? As mention on LTM monitor reference document: "A monitor with adaptive response time enabled marks a service as up or down based on the deviation of latency of the monitor probe from the mean latency of a monitor probe for that service. In typical cases, if the monitor detects three consecutive probes that miss the latency value you set, the system marks the pool member or node as down." In my case, I'm going to use this adaptive monitor for monitoring ISP link on F5 Link Controller, run using BIGIP OS 13.1.0.2. I make a monitor object like this: Type: gateway_icmp Interval time: 5 sec Timeout time: 16 sec Transparent: Yes Alias address: 8.8.8.8 Alias port: all ports Adaptive: Enabled Allowed Divergence: Absolute, 5 msec Adaptive Limit: 5 msec Sampling timespan: 60 sec If I do ping test from CLI to 8.8.8.8, then I get the average latency time is 13 msec: [root@CDT:Active:Standalone] config ping 8.8.8.8 PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=1 ttl=61 time=13.2 ms 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=2 ttl=61 time=13.0 ms 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=3 ttl=61 time=13.4 ms I was intentionally set the allowed divergence and time limit to a low number, which is 5 msec, to see how this monitor will marked down the pool member, which in this case is an ISP link. But I never get this pool member to be marked down by this monitor object. Anything wrong on my configuration? Do I need additional configuration to make it work? Thanks anyway..799Views0likes2Comments
