azurerm_lb_rule

Create a LoadBalancer Rule.

~> **NOTE When using this resource, the LoadBalancer needs to have a FrontEnd IP Configuration Attached

Example Usage

resource "azurerm_resource_group" "test" {
    name = "LoadBalancerRG"
    location = "West US"
}

resource "azurerm_public_ip" "test" {
    name = "PublicIPForLB"
    location = "West US"
    resource_group_name = "${azurerm_resource_group.test.name}"
    public_ip_address_allocation = "static"
}

resource "azurerm_lb" "test" {
    name = "TestLoadBalancer"
    location = "West US"
    resource_group_name = "${azurerm_resource_group.test.name}"

    frontend_ip_configuration {
      name = "PublicIPAddress"
      public_ip_address_id = "${azurerm_public_ip.test.id}"
    }
}

resource "azurerm_lb_rule" "test" {
  location = "West US"
  resource_group_name = "${azurerm_resource_group.test.name}"
  loadbalancer_id = "${azurerm_lb.test.id}"
  name = "LBRule"
  protocol = "Tcp"
  frontend_port = 3389
  backend_port = 3389
  frontend_ip_configuration_name = "PublicIPAddress"
}

Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

• name - (Required) Specifies the name of the LB Rule.
• resource_group_name - (Required) The name of the resource group in which to create the resource.
• location - (Required) Specifies the supported Azure location where the resource exists.
• loadbalancer_id - (Required) The ID of the LoadBalancer in which to create the Rule.
• frontend_ip_configuration_name - (Required) The name of the frontend IP configuration to which the rule is associated.
• protocol - (Required) The transport protocol for the external endpoint. Possible values are Udp or Tcp.
• frontend_port - (Required) The port for the external endpoint. Port numbers for each Rule must be unique within the Load Balancer. Possible values range between 1 and 65534, inclusive.
• backend_port - (Required) The port used for internal connections on the endpoint. Possible values range between 1 and 65535, inclusive.
• backend_address_pool_id - (Optional) A reference to a Backend Address Pool over which this Load Balancing Rule operates.
• probe_id - (Optional) A reference to a Probe used by this Load Balancing Rule.
• enable_floating_ip - (Optional) Floating IP is pertinent to failover scenarios: a “floating” IP is reassigned to a secondary server in case the primary server fails. Floating IP is required for SQL AlwaysOn.
• idle_timeout_in_minutes - (Optional) Specifies the timeout for the Tcp idle connection. The value can be set between 4 and 30 minutes. The default value is 4 minutes. This element is only used when the protocol is set to Tcp.
• load_distribution - (Optional) Specifies the load balancing distribution type to be used by the Load Balancer. Possible values are: Default – The load balancer is configured to use a 5 tuple hash to map traffic to available servers. SourceIP – The load balancer is configured to use a 2 tuple hash to map traffic to available servers. SourceIPProtocol – The load balancer is configured to use a 3 tuple hash to map traffic to available servers.

Attributes Reference

The following attributes are exported:

• id - The ID of the LoadBalancer to which the resource is attached.
