Overview

Represents a Forwarding Rule resource. Forwarding rule resources in Google Cloud can be either regional or global in scope: * Global * Regional A forwarding rule and its corresponding IP address represent the frontend configuration of a Google Cloud Platform load balancer. Forwarding rules can also reference target instances and Cloud VPN Classic gateways (targetVpnGateway). For more information, read Forwarding rule concepts and Using protocol forwarding.

Instance Attribute Details

#all_ports ⇒ Boolean Also known as: all_ports?

This field can only be used: - If IPProtocol is one of TCP, UDP, or SCTP. - By internal TCP/UDP load balancers, backend service-based network load balancers, and internal and external protocol forwarding. Set this field to true to allow packets addressed to any port or packets lacking destination port information ( for example, UDP fragments after the first fragment) to be forwarded to the backends configured with this forwarding rule. The ports, port_range, and allPorts fields are mutually exclusive. Corresponds to the JSON property allPorts

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

end

#allow_global_access ⇒ Boolean Also known as: allow_global_access?

This field is used along with the backend_service field for internal load balancing or with the target field for internal TargetInstance. If set to true, clients can access the Internal TCP/UDP Load Balancer, Internal HTTP(S) and TCP Proxy Load Balancer from all regions. If false, only allows access from the local region the load balancer is located at. Note that for INTERNAL_MANAGED forwarding rules, this field cannot be changed after the forwarding rule is created. Corresponds to the JSON property allowGlobalAccess

end

#ip_address ⇒ String

IP address for which this forwarding rule accepts traffic. When a client sends traffic to this IP address, the forwarding rule directs the traffic to the referenced target or backendService. While creating a forwarding rule, specifying an IPAddress is required under the following circumstances: - When the target is set to targetGrpcProxy and validateForProxyless is set to true, the IPAddress should be set to 0.0.0.0. - When the target is a Private Service Connect Google APIs bundle, you must specify an IPAddress. Otherwise, you can optionally specify an IP address that references an existing static (reserved) IP address resource. When omitted, Google Cloud assigns an ephemeral IP address. Use one of the following formats to specify an IP address while creating a forwarding rule: * IP address number, as in 100.1.2.3 * IPv6 address range, as in 2600:1234::/96 * Full resource URL, as in https://www. googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/ project_id/regions/region/addresses/ address-name * Partial URL or by name, as in: - projects/project_id/regions/ region/addresses/address-name - regions/region/addresses/address-name - global/ addresses/address-name - address-name The forwarding rule's target or backendService, and in most cases, also the loadBalancingScheme, determine the type of IP address that you can use. For detailed information, see IP address specifications. When reading an IPAddress, the API always returns the IP address number. Corresponds to the JSON property IPAddress

Returns:

  • (String)

end

#is_mirroring_collector ⇒ Boolean Also known as: is_mirroring_collector?

Indicates whether or not this load balancer can be used as a collector for packet mirroring. To prevent mirroring loops, instances behind this load balancer will not have their traffic mirrored even if a PacketMirroring rule applies to them.

#metadata_filters ⇒ Array<Google::Apis::ComputeAlpha::MetadataFilter>

Opaque filter criteria used by load balancer to restrict routing configuration to a limited set of xDS compliant clients. In their xDS requests to load balancer, xDS clients present node metadata. When there is a match, the relevant configuration is made available to those proxies. Otherwise, all the resources (e.g. TargetHttpProxy, UrlMap) referenced by the ForwardingRule are not visible to those proxies. For each metadataFilter in this list, if its filterMatchCriteria is set to MATCH_ANY, at least one of the filterLabels must match the corresponding label provided in the metadata. If its filterMatchCriteria is set to MATCH_ALL, then all of its filterLabels must match with corresponding labels provided in the metadata. If multiple metadataFilters are specified, all of them need to be satisfied in order to be considered a match. metadataFilters specified here will be applifed before those specified in the UrlMap that this ForwardingRule references. metadataFilters only applies to Loadbalancers that have their loadBalancingScheme set to INTERNAL_SELF_MANAGED. Corresponds to the JSON property metadataFilters

You can specify a list of up to five ports by number, separated by commas. The ports can be contiguous or discontiguous. Only packets addressed to these ports will be forwarded to the backends configured with this forwarding rule. For external forwarding rules, two or more forwarding rules cannot use the same [IPAddress, IPProtocol] pair, and cannot share any values defined in ports. For internal forwarding rules within the same VPC network, two or more forwarding rules cannot use the same [ IPAddress, IPProtocol] pair, and cannot share any values defined in ports.
