Parameters
Parameter |
Comments |
|---|---|
Restrict the allowed source IPs for this listener. Empty means that any source IP is allowed. If the list is non-empty, traffic from source IPs not included is denied. |
|
Timeout in seconds for calls to the cloudscale.ch API. This can also be passed in the Default: |
|
cloudscale.ch API token. This can also be passed in the |
|
cloudscale.ch API URL. This can also be passed in the Default: |
|
Name of the load balancer listener. Either name or uuid are required. |
|
The pool of the listener. |
|
The protocol used for receiving traffic. |
|
The port on which traffic is received. |
|
State of the load balancer listener. Choices:
|
|
Tags assosiated with the load balancer. Set this to |
|
Client inactivity timeout in milliseconds. |
|
Pool member connection timeout in milliseconds. |
|
Pool member inactivity timeout in milliseconds. |
|
UUID of the load balancer listener. Either name or uuid are required. |
Notes
Note
If uuid option is provided, it takes precedence over name for load balancer listener selection. This allows to update the listener’s name.
If no uuid option is provided, name is used for load balancer listener selection.
If more than one load balancer with this name exists, execution is aborted.
All operations are performed using the cloudscale.ch public API v1.
For details consult the full API documentation: https://www.cloudscale.ch/en/api/v1.
A valid API token is required for all operations. You can create as many tokens as you like using the cloudscale.ch control panel at https://control.cloudscale.ch.
