Monitor non-standard http port

I need to monitor a website running on a Flash Media server that uses port 8700.     I'm sure I'm just missing something, but how can I can I set up a monitor for this on an F5 LTM?

A monitor will make a request to whatever IP:port combination the pool member is defined with. Just create a new HTTP monitor and don't specify the Alias Address or Alias Service Port. For details on how to configure the send string you can search on AskF5 for 'monitor send string' or check this post (Click here).
