Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
id	Yes	String	VPC channel ID

Request

**Table 3** Parameter description
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
name	Yes	String	VPC channel name A VPC channel name consists of 3–64 characters, starting with a letter. Only letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed.
type	Yes	Integer	VPC channel type, which can be: 2: fast channel with the load balancing function
member_type	Mandatory if type is 2	String	Member type of the VPC channel, which can be: ip (not supported currently) instance This parameter is valid only when the VPC channel type is set to 2. The default value is instance.
port	Mandatory if type is 2	Integer	Host port of the VPC channel This parameter is valid only when the VPC channel type is set to 2. The value range is 1–65535.
balance_strategy	Mandatory if type is 2	Integer	Distribution algorithm, which can be: 1: WRR 2: WLC 3: SH 4: URI hashing This parameter is valid only when the VPC channel type is set to 2. The default value is 1.
vpc_health_config	Mandatory if type is 2	Dictionary	Health check details. This parameter is valid only when the VPC channel type is set to 2.
vpc_instances	Yes	Dictionary	Backend instance list. Only one backend instance is included if the VPC channel type is set to 1.

**Table 4** Health check details
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
protocol	Yes	String	Protocol for performing health checks on cloud servers in the VPC channel. The value can be: TCP HTTP HTTPS
path	Required if protocol is set to http.	String	Destination path for health checks NOTE: The value of this parameter must comply with URI specifications.
port	No	Integer	Destination port for health checks. By default, the host port of the VPC channel is used. Range: 1–65535
threshold_normal	Yes	Integer	Healthy threshold It refers to the number (x) of consecutive successful checks required for a cloud server to be marked as healthy. Range: 2–10
threshold_abnormal	Yes	Integer	Unhealthy threshold It refers to the number (x) of consecutive failed checks required for a cloud server to be marked as unhealthy. Range: 2–10
time_out	Yes	Integer	Timeout for determining whether a health check fails. Unit: s. The value must be less than the value of time_interval. Range: 2–30
time_interval	Yes	Integer	Interval between consecutive checks. Unit: s. The value must be greater than the value of time_out. Range: 5–300
http_code	Required if protocol is set to http.	String	HTTP response codes for determining a successful HTTP response The value can be any integer within 100–599 in one of the following formats: Multiple values, for example, 200,201,202 Range, for example, 200-299 Multiple values and ranges, for example, 201,202,210-299

**Table 5** Backend instance list
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
instance_name	Yes	String	Backend instance name The name must contain 1–64 characters. Only letters, digits, periods (.), hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed.
instance_id	Yes	String	Backend instance ID The ID must contain 1–64 characters. Only letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed.
weight	Mandatory if type is 2	Integer	Cloud server weight The larger the weight is, the more requests are forwarded to the backend instance. This parameter is valid only when the VPC channel type is set to 2. The value range is 1–100.
