    • Enter or select the required information in the Service Information Input area.
Category
Required
Detailed Description
Load Balancer NameRequiredLoad Balancer resource name
  • Enter 3 to 63 characters using uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters (-_)
Service CategoryRequiredLoad Balancer service type
  • Select L4 or L7
  • Because the service type is distinguished, you cannot configure both TCP and HTTP listeners on a single Load Balancer
VPC NameRequiredThe VPC in which the Load Balancer will be created. Select from the VPC list. When you select + Create New, you can select it after creation.
Service Subnet NameRequiredThe VPC Subnet where the Load Balancer will be created
  • Select from the list of Subnets created in the selected VPC
    • You can select any Subnet regardless of Subnet type (Public/Private) or classification (Primary/Secondary)
  • + Create New: You can select a Subnet after it is created
  • By default, you can create Load Balancers in up to three Service Subnets per VPC
    • The number of Service Subnets is calculated based on Primary Subnets
      • Creating Load Balancers in Secondary Subnets A-1 and A-2 under Primary Subnet A uses one Service Subnet
      • After creating Load Balancers in Primary Subnets A, B, and C, you can create an additional Load Balancer in Secondary Subnet A-1
      • After creating Load Balancers in Secondary Subnets A-1, B-1, and C-1, you cannot create a Load Balancer in Primary Subnet D
  • You cannot create a Load Balancer if the number of Service Subnets per VPC exceeds the limit or if the Subnet does not have enough available IPs required to create a Load Balancer
    • Creating the first Load Balancer in a Subnet requires four available IPs
    • If a Load Balancer already exists in the Subnet, one available IP is required
  • If a Load Balancer is already created in the selected Service Subnet, the initially configured Availability Zone, Source NAT IP, health check IP, and Firewall information are displayed
Availability Zone 1RequiredSelect the Availability Zone in which to create the Load Balancer from among the Availability Zones where the Service Subnet is created.
  • If only Availability Zone 1 is selected in a Multi-AZ Subnet, the Load Balancer is configured as Single-AZ.
  • If you create an additional Load Balancer in the same Service Subnet, you cannot select an Availability Zone other than the one initially configured.
Availability Zone 2RequiredThis item is available only when a Multi-AZ Subnet is selected for the Service Subnet. Configure the Load Balancer for Multi-AZ.
  • When configured for Multi-AZ, Availability Zone 1 is active and handles all service requests. If a failure occurs in Availability Zone 1, traffic automatically fails over to Availability Zone 2.
Service IPRequiredSelect either automatic assignment or manual entry for the service IP exposed to the client.
  • For manual entry, enter one IP from the Service Subnet range in IP address format.
  • For automatic assignment, the IP is automatically assigned from the IP allocation range of the selected Service Subnet.
Public NAT IPSelectWhen allowing service access from external (internet) sources, select the Public IP to associate with the Service IP.
  • This setting is available if the selected VPC is connected to an Internet Gateway.
  • If you select + Create New, you can select the IP after it is created.
  • For a Multi-AZ Load Balancer, you can select a Public IP from the Public IPs created in Availability Zone 1 for the Public NAT IP.
Source NAT IPRequiredSelect either automatic assignment or manual entry for the IP address used for server communication in the Load Balancer.
  • For manual entry, enter one IP from the Service Subnet range in IP address format.
  • For automatic assignment, the IP is automatically assigned from the IP allocation range of the selected Service Subnet.
  • The IP cannot be modified after the Load Balancer is created.
Health check IPRequiredSelect either automatic assignment or manual entry for the IP used for member health checks in the Load Balancer.
  • When entering manually, input two IPs from the Service Subnet range in IP address format, separated by a ,.
  • When automatic assignment is selected, IPs are automatically assigned from the IP allocation range of the selected Service Subnet.
  • A Multi-AZ Load Balancer requires a total of four IPs, with two assigned per Availability Zone.
  • IPs cannot be modified after the Load Balancer is created.
Using a FirewallSelectSelect whether to enable the Firewall for Load Balancer access control.
  • Use: Creates the Firewall in an enabled state.
  • Do Not Use: Creates the Firewall in a disabled state (can be enabled from the Firewall menu).

      Notice
      • The Load Balancer service does not provide access control for Service IPs and service ports.
        • When creating a Load Balancer, select Use Firewall to manage communication between the client and the Load Balancer, and between the Load Balancer and its members, using firewall rules. We also recommend using Firewall Log Storage to store access logs.
      • When creating a service, if you use the Firewall log storage feature, you must first configure the log repository. * You cannot create a Load Balancer service if the log repository configuration is not complete.
      Warning

      When using a firewall, you must add the rules required for Load Balancer communication. Register rules with attention to the direction for each use case.

      • If you do not add rules, the Load Balancer service does not function properly.
