Test

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

  • Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.

  • API: The API that you can call to perform the action.

  • Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.

  • Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.

    • For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.

    • For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.

  • Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.

  • Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.

Request parameters

Parameter

Type

80

LoadBalancerId

string

Yes

The ID of the load balancer.

Response elements

Element

Type

Description

Example

object

The response schema.

RequestId

string

The request ID.

5D7597CF-1630-54EC-A945-624A33F2E7E8

ListenerPort

integer

The listener port.

80

Status

string

The status of the listener. Valid values:

  • Running: The listener is running.

  • Stopped: The listener is stopped.

  • Starting: The listener is starting.

  • Configuring: The listener is being configured.

  • Stopping: The listener is being stopped.

Stopped

Bandwidth

integer

The peak bandwidth of the load balancer. A value of -1 indicates that no rate limit is applied.

5

Scheduler

string

The scheduling algorithm. Valid values:

  • wrr (Weighted Round Robin): Backend servers with higher weights receive a larger proportion of requests.

  • wlc (Weighted Least Connections): Requests are distributed based on both the weight and the current connection count of each backend server. If backend servers have the same weight, the server with the fewest connections receives more new requests.

  • rr (Round Robin): Requests are distributed to backend servers sequentially.

  • sch (Source IP Hash): Routes requests from the same source IP address to the same backend server by using a consistent hash of the source IP address.

  • tch (4-tuple Hash): Routes packets from the same flow to the same backend server by using a consistent hash of the 4-tuple (source IP address, destination IP address, source port, and destination port).

  • qch (QUIC Connection ID Hash): Uses a consistent hashing algorithm on the QUIC Connection ID to ensure that requests with the same connection ID are always routed to the same backend server.

  • iqch (iQUIC CID Hash): Uses a consistent hashing algorithm on bytes 2, 3, and 4 of the iQUIC CID. Requests where these three bytes are the same are routed to the same backend server.

wrr

HealthCheck

string

Specifies whether to enable health checks. Valid values:

  • on: Enabled.

  • off: Disabled.

on

HealthyThreshold

integer

The number of consecutive successful health checks that must occur before a backend server can be declared healthy. Valid values: 2 to 10.

Note

This parameter takes effect only when HealthCheck is set to on.

4

UnhealthyThreshold

integer

The number of consecutive failed health checks that must occur before a backend server can be declared unhealthy. Valid values: 2 to 10.

Note

This parameter takes effect only when HealthCheck is set to on.

4

HealthCheckConnectTimeout

integer

The timeout period for a health check response. If a backend ENS instance does not respond within the specified timeout period, the health check fails.

  • Default value: 5.

  • Valid values: 1 to 300.

  • Unit: seconds.

Note
  • This parameter takes effect only when HealthCheck is set to on.

  • If the value of HealthCheckConnectTimeout is less than the value of HealthCheckInterval, the value of HealthCheckInterval is used as the timeout period.

100

HealthCheckInterval

integer

The interval between health checks. Valid values: 1 to 50. Unit: seconds.

Note

This parameter takes effect only when HealthCheck is set to on.

5

Description

string

The listener name.

example

BackendServerPort

integer

The port used by the backend servers. Valid values: 1 to 65535.

8080

HealthCheckConnectPort

integer

The port used for health checks. Valid values: 1 to 65535. If you do not specify this parameter, the value of BackendServerPort is used.

8000

HealthCheckReq

string

The request string for UDP health checks. The string can contain only letters and digits and can be up to 64 characters in length.

hello

HealthCheckExp

string

The response string for UDP health checks. The string can contain only letters and digits and can be up to 64 characters in length.

ok

EipTransmit

string

Specifies whether to enable EIP passthrough. Valid values:

  • on: Enabled.

  • off (default): Disabled.

on

EstablishedTimeout

integer

The connection timeout period. Valid values: 10 to 900. Unit: seconds.

500
