admin_state_up	No	Boolean	Specifies the administrative status of the listener.
connection_limit	No	Array of integers	Specifies the maximum number of connections that the load balancer can establish with backend servers. The value -1 indicates that the number of connections is not limited. Multiple values can be queried in the format of connection_limit=xxx&connection_limit=xxx. This parameter is unsupported. Please do not use it.
default_pool_id	No	Array of strings	Specifies the ID of the default backend server group. If there is no matched forwarding policy, requests will be routed to the default backend server. Multiple IDs can be queried in the format of default_pool_id=xxx&default_pool_id=xxx.

All listeners of dedicated load balancers: The value can only be true, and the default value is true if this parameter is not passed. Note: This function can only be enabled or disabled for TCP or UDP listeners of shared load balancers. If this function is enabled, the load balancer communicates with backend servers using their real IP addresses. Ensure that security group rules and access control policies are correctly configured. If this function is enabled, a server cannot serve as both a backend server and a client. If this function is enabled, backend server specifications cannot be changed.
proxy_protocol_enable	Boolean	Specifies whether to enable the ProxyProtocol option to pass the source IP addresses of the clients to backend servers. Note: This parameter is available only for TLS listeners and does not take effect for other types of listeners.

The following scenarios are supported: action can be set to REDIRECT_TO_URL (requests will be redirected to another URL) or FIXED_RESPONSE (a fixed response body will be returned to clients). Parameters priority, redirect_url_config, and fixed_response_config can be specified in a forwarding policy. type can be set to METHOD, HEADER, QUERY_STRING, or SOURCE_IP for a forwarding rule. If type is set to HOST_NAME for a forwarding rule, the value of the forwarding rule supports wildcard asterisks (). Parameter conditions* can be specified for forwarding rules. Note: Advanced forwarding cannot be disabled once it is enabled. If advanced forwarding is enabled, forwarding policy priorities are defined by priority. For details, see the description of the priority field in the forwarding policy.
quic_config	ListenerQuicConfig object	Specifies the QUIC configuration for the current listener. Note: This parameter is valid only when protocol is set to HTTPS. For a TCP, UDP, HTTP, or QUIC listener, if this parameter is not left blank, an error will be reported. The client sends a normal HTTP request that contains information indicating that the QUIC protocol is supported. If QUIC upgrade is enabled for the listeners, QUIC port and version information will be added to the response header. When the client sends both HTTPS and QUIC requests to the server, if the QUIC request is successfully sent, QUIC protocol will be used for subsequent communications.
cps	Integer	Specifies the maximum number of new connections that a listener can handle per second. Value range: 0 to 1000000 Default value: 0, indicating that the number is not limited. Note: If the value is greater than the number defined in the load balancer specifications, the latter is used as the limit.
connection	Integer	Specifies the maximum number of concurrent connections that a listener can handle per second. Value range: 0 to 1000000 Default value: 0, indicating that the number is not limited. Note: If the value is greater than the number defined in the load balancer specifications, the latter is used as the limit.
