probe probe_list {ping | http | ftp | pop3 | smtp | imap}

Use this command to configure probes for ping, HTTP, FTP, POP3, SMTP, and IMAP traffic. Probes
monitor different types of traffic. For each protocol you configure the time interval between probes
(interval) and how many lost probes are required to register a failure (threshold). You can also enable
each probe and in all cases except ping you can specify the port used by the probe.
