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:

  • Go to Networking -> Load balancing -> Monitors

  • Select monitor type
