Health monitor:
It will make sure the nodes are up.
if not, it will not route any packet to
the respective server.
monitrors can apply at node, pool member
and pool level
At node level, we can apply ICMP
Node> health monitor > node specific > ICMP
inherit from pool
when we apply health monitor on pool, same will apply to pool memeber.
Default monitors:
categories:
layer 4, layer 7 and layer 3
monitorings :
interval > how often the monitor's test will run.
Timeout : how long the monitor will wait for a successful test
timeout = 5 * interval +1
