If you want to make a monitor to just check check the service then you can use tcp monitor on the port of the LDAP and this is called service check. The F5 LDAP monitor is an application monitor that checks the application itself so not only LDAP needs to reply but the reply is checked if it is valid.

If your AD server supports anonymous searches by specific source IP addresses you may create external bash script monitor with the "ldapsearch" linux comman that will log into the LDAP without password but I do not recommend it.
