    1. Create a Load Balancer and an LB server group.
    2. Add the IP that will be associated with AD as a member of the LB server group’s connected resource.
    3. Create a Listener from the Load Balancer’s connected resources and attach the LB server group.
      Information
      • Through the Load Balancer service, the call information for AD synchronization from ID Center can traverse the user’s VPC and invoke the user’s AD.
      • For detailed information on creating and using the Load Balancer service, see Using the Load Balancer service.
  3. Configure a PrivateLink Service in the user’s VPC.

    1. Create a PrivateLink Service for the user VPC that will be called from ID Center.
