HTTP Monitor that follows redirects

We are trying to configure an HTTP monitor to monitor a .NET application and mark the member as down if it does not receive the response it expects. The problem is that the first response is a 401 Unauthorized. By putting 401 Unauthorized in the receive string we can cover the service being down, website stopped, or application pool unavailable. However, it does not cover us for when we receive 500 server errors as they are returned after the 401 Unauthorized.

 

 

Does anyone have a suggestion as to how we can do this using a simple HTTP monitor, or if necessary, an irule/ECV ?
