1 Topicreversed port check (tcp)
Hi, In F5 (v12) we can create a tcp check. So I created one. Very simple. It is attached this this pool/poolmember I can reach the member and the checkport (8000) from the cli of the F5 Now on this page: https://techdocs.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/manuals/product/ltm-monitors-reference-11-5-0/3.html I read (in TCP settings table) "Note: If you do not specify both a Send String and a Receive String, the monitor performs a simple service check and connect only." and "Note: If you choose to set the Reverse setting to Yes, the Receive Disable String option becomes unavailable and the monitor marks the pool, pool member, or node Down when the test is successful." So when I read that, and with the way I set things up, and the fact I can nicely connect when port 8000 is available, I expect the poolmember to be disabled whenever the connection to port 8000 on it's IP can me made and to be enabled whenever the connection can NOT be made. However, the only state this check ever causes is ' disabled'. What is going wrong here?663Views0likes3Comments
