Question Image

An administrator created a monitor for a pool-member web server, resulting in a pool member being marked red. The administrator knows that the web server works when it is accessed from another computer.

What should the administrator do to resolve the problem?

A Change the default gateway on the server.
B Create a SNAT in the LTM device configuration.
C Change the route to the client in the LTM configuration.
D Change the username and/or password on the monitor.

Explanation

An active BIG-IP monitor must be able to establish a connection to the pool member and receive its reply. The server needs a valid return path to the BIG-IP monitor source; correcting the server’s default gateway provides that path. Successful access from another computer does not prove that the server can return monitor traffic to the BIG-IP.
