DESCRIPTION
       You can use the bigip-link component to configure a custom monitor, or
       you can use the default BIG-IP Link monitor that the Global Traffic
       Manager provides. This type of monitor acquires data captured through
       monitors managed by a BIG-IP Link Controller.

EXAMPLES
       create bigip-link my_bigip-link defaults-from bigip_link

       Creates a monitor named my_bigip-link that inherits properties from the
       default BIG-IP Link monitor.

       list bigip-link

       Displays the properties of all of the BIG-IP Link monitors.

OPTIONS
       app-service
	    Specifies the name of the application service to which the monitor
	    belongs. The default value is none. Note: If the strict-updates
	    option is enabled on the application service that owns the object,
	    you cannot modify or delete the monitor. Only the application
	    service can modify or delete the monitor.

       defaults-from
	    Specifies the name of the monitor from which you want your custom
	    monitor to inherit settings. The default value is bigip_link.

       description
	    User defined description.

       destination
	    Specifies the IP address of the resource that is the destination
	    of this monitor. The default value is *.

	    Possible values are:

	    *	 Specifies to perform a health check on the IP address of the
		 node.

	    IP address
		 Specifies to perform a health check on the IP address that
		 you specify, route the check through the IP address of the
		 associated node, and mark the IP address of the associated
		 node up or down accordingly.

       glob Displays the items that match the glob expression. See help glob
	    for a description of glob expression syntax.

       ignore-down-response
	    Specifies whether the monitor ignores a down response from the
	    system it is monitoring. The default value is disabled.

       interval
	    Specifies the frequency at which the system issues the monitor
	    check. The default value is 10 seconds.

       name Specifies a unique name for the component. This option is required
	    for the commands create, delete, and modify.

       partition
	    Displays the administrative partition within which the component
	    resides.

       regex
	    Displays the items that match the regular expression. The regular
	    expression must be preceded by an at sign (@[regular expression])
	    to indicate that the identifier is a regular expression. See help
	    regex for a description of regular expression syntax.

       timeout
	    Specifies the number of seconds the target has in which to respond
	    to the monitor request. The default value is 30 seconds.

	    If the target responds within the set time period, it is
	    considered up. If the target does not respond within the set time
	    period, it is considered down. Also, if the target responds with a
	    RESET packet, the system immediately flags the target as down
	    without waiting for the timeout interval to expire.
