Reference documentation and code samples for the Google Cloud Compute V1 API module Google::Cloud::Compute::V1::BackendService::LoadBalancingScheme.
Specifies the load balancer type. A backend service created for one type of load balancer cannot be used with another. For more information, refer to Choosing a load balancer.
Constants
UNDEFINED_LOAD_BALANCING_SCHEME
value: 0 A value indicating that the enum field is not set.
EXTERNAL
value: 35_607_499 Signifies that this will be used for classic Application Load Balancers, global external proxy Network Load Balancers, or external passthrough Network Load Balancers.
EXTERNAL_MANAGED
value: 512_006_923 Signifies that this will be used for global external Application Load Balancers, regional external Application Load Balancers, or regional external proxy Network Load Balancers.
INTERNAL
value: 279_295_677 Signifies that this will be used for internal passthrough Network Load Balancers.
INTERNAL_MANAGED
value: 37_350_397 Signifies that this will be used for internal Application Load Balancers.
INTERNAL_SELF_MANAGED
value: 236_211_150 Signifies that this will be used by Traffic Director.
