anilperumandla

Hi Everyone, we are migrating F5 to A10 in this process we would like to test Health monitors in A10 for samw which already working in F5, but unfortunately it is no working on A10 with same as below

URL type - HEAD

Send string - / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n

Expected string - Server\:

did anyone faces similer issues is there any solution for this make work ??

dquinn

try the following:

health monitor test-hc 

 method http port 80 expect "Server\\:" url HEAD "/HTTP/1.0\\r\\n\\r\\n" 

i tend to use the GUI to do these type translations

anilperumandla

do you use single \ or \\ ?

I can see in CLI it is ' \\ ' but in GUA showing as ' \ '

dquinn

in cli you would use \\

i would recommend putting your F5 configs into the GUI to do the translation. As you see, it will translate the single \ to a double \\ . There are other translations besides the \ that will be easier to translate in GUI (use the GUI first)

 method http port 80 expect Server: url HEAD /

that output doesn't match the config. What version of ACOS are you running?

here is the config from above with the expected output:

dquinn_vTH1-Active-vMaster[12/1]#sh run health monitor test-hc

!Section configuration: 75 bytes

health monitor test-hc 

 method http port 80 expect Server: url HEAD / 

!

dquinn_vTH1-Active-vMaster[12/1]#sh health monitor test-hc
