Health check endpoints are defined
Understanding of traffic distribution requirements (round-robin, least-connections)
Cloud provider CLI installed (if using cloud load balancers)

Instructions

Select Load Balancer Type: Choose based on requirements (L4 vs L7, cloud vs on-prem)
Define Backend Pool: List backend servers with ports and weights
Configure Health Checks: Set check interval, timeout, and healthy threshold
Set Up SSL/TLS: Configure certificates and cipher suites
Define Routing Rules: Create path-based or host-based routing
Enable Session Persistence: Configure sticky sessions if needed
Add Monitoring: Set up logging and metrics collection
Test Configuration: Validate syntax and test traffic distribution
