Get-NetworkControllerLoadBalancer
This cmdlet retrieves the configuration of a load balancer resource from the Network Controller
Syntax
Get-NetworkControllerLoadBalancer
[[-ResourceId] <String[]>]
-ConnectionUri <Uri>
[-CertificateThumbprint <String>]
[-Credential <PSCredential>]
[-PassInnerException]
[<CommonParameters>]
Description
This cmdlet retrieves the configuration of a load balancer resource. The load balancer resource allows fine-grained configuration of how incoming traffic is distributed across VM instances in a virtual network. It contains the following:
- Front End IP configuration - This describes the exposed IP address of the load balancer. For example, this address can be a reserved public or private IP address previously obtained by the customer, or an IP address dynamically allocated from a subnet of a virtual network.
- BackEnd address pools - This describes the backend VMs behind the front end IP resource.
- Load balancing rules - This defines how traffic that arrives at the front-end IP is to be sent to the backend IP
- Health probe - Health probes are used by the load balancer to determine the health state of the backend pool members.
- Inbound NAT rules - This can be used to forward external traffic to a specific VM in the virtual network
- Outbound NAT rules - This can be used to forward VM network traffic from the virtual network to external destinations using network address translation (NAT).
Examples
Example 1
This example retrieves the configuration of a load balancer resource named lb1 from the Network Controller
Get-NetworkControllerLoadBalancer -ConnectionUri https://networkcontroller -ResourceId lb1
Parameters
