Adding a listener to a load balancer

To add a listener to a network load balancer:

  1. Open the Load Balancer section in the folder where you want to add a new listener to the load balancer.
  2. Click in the line of the load balancer to add a listener for.
  3. In the menu that opens, click Add listener.
  4. Enter a port for the listener.
  5. Click Add.

If you don't have the Yandex.Cloud command-line interface, install it.

The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

To add a listener to a load balancer:

  1. Get the list of load balancers:

    $ yc load-balancer network-load-balancer list
+----------------------+--------------------+-------------+----------+----------------+------------------------+----------+
|          ID          |        NAME        |  REGION ID  |   TYPE   | LISTENER COUNT | ATTACHED TARGET GROUPS |  STATUS  |
+----------------------+--------------------+-------------+----------+----------------+------------------------+----------+
| c58r8boim8qfkcqtuioj | test-load-balancer | ru-central1 | EXTERNAL |              0 |                        | INACTIVE |
+----------------------+--------------------+-------------+----------+----------------+------------------------+----------+

  2. Add the listener by entering the name, port, and IP address version:

    $ yc load-balancer network-load-balancer add-listener c580id04kvumgn7ssfh1 \
     --listener name=test-listener,port=80,external-ip-version=ipv4
.....done

folder_id: aoerb349v3h4bupphtaf

region_id: ru-central1
