Configuring active health monitoring is similar to creating health checks on other load-balancers.

When you associate an active health monitor with a pool, the pool members are monitored according to the active health monitor parameters. To configure an Active Health Monitor, perform the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Go to Networking > Load balancing > Monitors
  2. Select monitor type.
  3. Click the Add () icon and select HTTPS
  4. Choose a name for the active monitor and enter Monitor Properties (please refer to the example below).
  5. Configure Health check parameters withthe following values:
    3. HTTP Method
