create-load-balancer-listeners

Description

Creates one or more listeners for the specified load balancer. If a listener with the specified port does not already exist, it is created; otherwise, the properties of the new listener must match the properties of the existing listener.

For more information, see Listeners for Your Classic Load Balancer in the Classic Load Balancers Guide .

See 'aws help' for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  create-load-balancer-listeners
--load-balancer-name <value>
--listeners <value>
[--cli-input-json <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--load-balancer-name (string)

The name of the load balancer.

--listeners (list)

The listeners.

(structure)

Information about a listener.

For information about the protocols and the ports supported by Elastic Load Balancing, see Listeners for Your Classic Load Balancer in the Classic Load Balancers Guide .

Protocol -> (string)

The load balancer transport protocol to use for routing: HTTP, HTTPS, TCP, or SSL.

LoadBalancerPort -> (integer)

The port on which the load balancer is listening. On EC2-VPC, you can specify any port from the range 1-65535. On EC2-Classic, you can specify any port from the following list: 25, 80, 443, 465, 587, 1024-65535.

InstanceProtocol -> (string)

The protocol to use for routing traffic to instances: HTTP, HTTPS, TCP, or SSL.

If the front-end protocol is TCP or SSL, the back-end protocol must be TCP or SSL. If the front-end protocol is HTTP or HTTPS, the back-end protocol must be HTTP or HTTPS.

If there is another listener with the same InstancePort whose InstanceProtocol is secure, (HTTPS or SSL), the listener's InstanceProtocol must also be secure.

If there is another listener with the same InstancePort whose InstanceProtocol is HTTP or TCP, the listener's InstanceProtocol must be HTTP or TCP.

InstancePort -> (integer)

The port on which the instance is listening.

SSLCertificateId -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the server certificate.

Shorthand Syntax:

Protocol=string,LoadBalancerPort=integer,InstanceProtocol=string,InstancePort=integer,SSLCertificateId=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Protocol": "string",
    "LoadBalancerPort": integer,
    "InstanceProtocol": "string",
    "InstancePort": integer,
    "SSLCertificateId": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

See 'aws help' for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples

To create HTTP listeners for a load balancer

This example creates a listener for your load balancer at port 80 using the HTTP protocol.

Command:

aws elb create-load-balancer-listeners --load-balancer-name my-load-balancer --listeners "Protocol=HTTP,LoadBalancerPort=80,InstanceProtocol=HTTP,InstancePort=80"

To create HTTPS listeners for a load balancer

This example creates a listener for your load balancer at port 443 using the HTTPS protocol.

Command:

aws elb create-load-balancer-listeners --load-balancer-name my-load-balancer --listeners "Protocol=HTTPS,LoadBalancerPort=443,InstanceProtocol=HTTP,InstancePort=80"

Output

None
