Hi guys,

We're implementing a new web cluster fronted by a load-balancer, and I
want to monitor the web service on each server in the cluster.

If I have the config line as below, do I just need to add the command
'testip' so that the HTTPS request will be sent to 1.2.3.4? instead of
attempting to resolve secure-website.com which would lead to the
load-balancer IP being returned.

1.2.3.4    web-server1 # https://secure-website.com sni

Thanks

Steve
