HealthChecks from F5 LB causing Router "Missing host" errors

[#1]

Hi,

I have F5 LBs in front of my apigee instance, however I do not have control over the F5's and getting changes implemented is a hassle. So, I was wondering if there is a good way of dealing with LBs sending healthchecks without Host headers, my goal is to get rid of apigee writing 7000+ errors per hour (2 environments, LBs trying to ping both envs, once per second = 7200 per hour) to the logs. It wastes resources and makes the logs that much more difficult to look through as well.

Thanks!
