Creating a Load Balancer

Function

This API is used to create a dedicated load balancer. When you create a dedicated load balancer, note the following:

  • Specify vip_subnet_cidr_id if you want to bind a private IPv4 address to the dedicated load balancer.

  • Specify publicip and either vpc_id or vip_subnet_cidr_id if you want to bind a new IPv4 EIP to the dedicated load balancer.

  • Specify publicip_ids and either vpc_id or vip_subnet_cidr_id if you want to bind an existing IPv4 EIP to the dedicated load balancer.

  • Specify ipv6_vip_virsubnet_id if you want to bind a private IPv6 address to the dedicated load balancer.

  • Specify both ipv6_vip_virsubnet_id and ipv6_bandwidth if you want to bind a public IPv6 address to the dedicated load balancer.

  • Specify l4_flavor_id if you want to create a network load balancer and l7_flavor_id to create an application load balancer. Specify both l4_flavor_id and l7_flavor_id if you want to create a load balancer that can work at both Layer 4 and Layer 7.

  • Specify prepaid_options if you want to create a yearly/monthly load balancer.

  • If prepaid_options is not specified, pay-per-use load balancers will be created, which are billed by fixed specifications or elastic specifications you have selected for l4_flavor_id and l7_flavor_id when creating the load balancer.

Constraints

There are some constraints when you create a dedicated load balancer:

  • vpc_id, vip_subnet_cidr_id, and ipv6_vip_virsubnet_id cannot be left blank at the same time.

  • ip_target_enable specifies whether to enable IP as a Backend. If you enable this function for a dedicated load balancer, you can associate servers in a VPC connected through a VPC peering connection, in a VPC connected through a cloud connection, or in an on-premises data center at the other end of a Direct Connect or VPN connection, by using server IP addresses.

  • admin_state_up must be set to true.

  • provider must be set to vlb.

  • elb_virsubnet_ids indicates the subnets that support IPv4/IPv6 dual stack or only IPv4 subnets. If only IPv4 subnets are supported, ipv6_vip_virsubnet_id must be left blank.

  • If you bind an EIP to the load balancer during creation, you cannot unbind it from the load balancer by calling the API after the load balancer is created. Instead, you can unbind the EIP only on the ELB console. Locate the dedicated load balancer in the load balancer list and click More > Unbind EIP in the Operation column.

  • publicip_ids and publicip cannot be specified at the same time. Set either publicip_ids to bind an existing EIP to the load balancer, or publicip to bind a new EIP to the load balancer, or neither of them.

  • If you want to add the load balancer to a shared bandwidth, you must specify the ID of the shared bandwidth. If you want the load balancer to use a new dedicated bandwidth, charge_mode, share_type, and size are required.
