First of all you should rename it to check_bigip_pool. It doesn't matter
much... the reason I changed the name is simply because I'm too lazy to
make a tar archive and nagiosexchange doesn't allow duplicate file names...

This is my plugin and you need the Nagios::Plugin Perl module.

Any of these commands should install it (not every system have the cpan
executable):

# cpan Nagios::Plugin
# perl -MCPAN -e 'install Nagios::Plugin'

I'm not the author of this one but looks like it uses F5's API. just as
above you can try to install it from CPAN:

# cpan iControlTypeCast
# perl -MCPAN -e 'install iControlTypeCast'

If it's not on CPAN then look on the F5's web site... you should find it
there (you may need a curtomer login though - I'm not sure as I haven't
looked for a long time).

If you download it it will likely coma with a Makefile.PL file - just
run perl on it to create the Makefile, then make/make install should work.
