1. A monitoring system, comprising:
- a message generator executable by a processor, said message generator configured to create messages to be used for monitoring liveliness of an application;
a sequence generator configured to create a sequence of messages to provide message exchanges for the monitoring;
a base monitor configured to validate that the sequence of messages is exchanged with the application;
a message responder to form reply messages to send back in response to liveliness requests from application monitors; and
a request router to route the liveliness requests to at least one of the message responder or to the monitored application, wherein the request router is located within the network stack of a device running the monitored application.

Abstract
A system and method for monitoring liveliness includes a management device which has an application layer where applications are executed. A connection monitor is located other than on the application layer, and the connection monitor is configured to receive requests from clients and deliver the requests to components on the application layer. The components include a generic application monitor which responds to liveliness monitor requests from the clients for all applications monitored, and one or more applications which response to requests to that application.
