The default TCP monitor will check the TCP port configured on the pool member. For example, if you have pool member 1.1.1.1:80, TCP monitor will check port 80 on that IP address (1.1.1.1).
If you want to check some other port for the same pool member: 1.1.1.1:80, you would have to change the "Alias Service Port" option within the TCP monitor from "*" to 8080, if you want to monitor port 8080 for the pool member 1.1.1.1:80 instead of default 80.

As Odaah said, should be high ports (1024-65535). I could't find any way to change that, neither via monitor or db keys for bigd.
However, if you disable port reuse for bigd, the monitor should fail only once (when uses the blocked port). As the default monitor settings (and F5 recommendation even if you change), is to have 3 fails before the member is marked down, it should not mark the pool member down.
