Generic Host HTTPS Health Monitor

I have two generic hosts set up in a lab with an HTTPS health monitor. The health monitor is a simple GET string with a 200 OK return expected.

 

GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: servername.company.com\r\nConnection: Close\r\n\r\n

 

This works fine when I add the nodes to a pool and apply this monitor. When I create an identical HTTPS health monitor for DNS though, the targets are marked as offline.

 

What am I missing?

      Hi ldesfosses. No I'm monitoring two HTTPS application servers. These applications will be load balanced by a DNS Wide-IP, with an HTTPS health check to determine if the application is available.
