    Print: Export: PDF

    Step 1: In the menu, select Load Balancer > Load Balancer, then click Create Load Balancer

    Step 2: Enter the Load Balancer configuration details

    To create a Load Balancer, the system will automatically create one Listener and one Server Pool, based on the selected configuration, including:

    1. Load Balancer Information

    Field Description
    Name Enter a name for the Load Balancer to make management easier. This name can be changed later.
    Description Description of the Load Balancer.
    Size Choose a Load Balancer size that fits your needs. FPT Cloud offers four types with 24/7 availability: Basic-1, Basic-2, Standard, and Advanced.
    Public IP Select a public IP if you want internet access.
    Subnet Choose or input a CIDR block. If not specified, the system auto-selects a subnet from the VPC.
    Private IP Input a private IP (must be within the subnet). If not specified, one will be auto-assigned.

    ⚠️ Note: With Load Balancer v2.0, there's no need to manually create a security group when attaching a public IP. The system automatically opens the firewall based on the Listener configuration.

    2. Listener Configuration

    Field Description
    Listener name Name for easier management. Can be changed later.
    Description Description of the Listener.
    Protocol Protocol that the Listener uses to receive and forward requests.
    Port Port the Listener listens on.

    3. Server Pool Configuration

    Field Description
    Name Name of the server pool.
    Add server Add members. They can be VMs on FPT Cloud (in same VPC) or external servers.
    Port Port used by the backend server to receive requests.
    Weight Used to distribute traffic (≥1). Default is 1.
    Algorithm Load balancing algorithm for traffic distribution.
    Sticky session Enable if you want the same client to connect to the same server.
    Healthcheck configuration Set how the system monitors server health. Defaults are available.

    After entering the required info, click Create.

    Step 3: Verify Load Balancer status

    After creation, you’ll be redirected to the list of Load Balancers. Each component (LB, Listener, Pool, Member) has its own statuses:

    Object Provisioning Status Operating Status
    Load Balancer Active: Created successfully
    Creating: Being created
    Updating: Updating
    Deleting: Deleting
    Pending: Error occurred, contact support    		 Healthy: All pools/members are OK
    Unhealthy: At least one member is down
    Offline: All members are down
    No healthcheck: None configured or error
    Listener Same as above N/A
    Server pool Same as above Same as above
    Member N/A Healthy: Receives traffic
    Unhealthy: Does not receive traffic

    ⚠️ Note: Creating a Load Balancer may take a few minutes. Please wait until it's in Active status before performing further actions.
