[f-nsp] Re: serveriron http on ports other than 80

[Bulger, Tim]

I believe you are looking for the 'no http port translate' command.. I
suggest searching the ServerIron docs on their site.

I don't know about the high port issue, but you can set the health check
to
expect a certain value or string - that should take care of the proxy
issue.

Take a look at this page, it explains more about setting the health
check
status code.
