Difference between failed and Probe_failed

[f.siddiqui]

When I execute "show mod csm 5 real" the output shows Probe_Failed and Failed.

What is the difference between failed and Probe_failed or if someone can provide the description for Probe_failed state.

Thanks

Hi,

as far as I know a real is marked as failed if it can not be accessed (i.e. arp failes) The status 2probe failed" occurs if a probe does not receive an answer (i.e. when doing a tcp-test on port 80 and the server won't repond within a certain time)

Kind Regards,

Joerg
