Verify that at least one vSphere machine component exists in the blueprint design canvas.
Procedure
1 Click Network & Security in the Categories section to display the list of available network and
security components.
2 Drag an On-Demand Load Balancer component onto the design canvas.
3 Enter a name in the Name text box.
4 Select a machine name from the Machine drop-down menu.
The list contains only vSphere machine components in the active blueprint.
5 Select a NIC from the NIC drop-down menu.
The list contains NICs that are defined on the selected vSphere machine component.
6 Select a VIP network from the VIP Network drop-down menu.
7 (Optional) Enter the VIP address for the NIC from the IP Address.
The default setting is the static IP address that is associated with the VIP network. You can specify
another IP address or an IP address range. By default, the next available IP address is allocated for
VIP from the network profile. You can only specify an IP address when VIP is created on a NAT
network.
8 Select the check box next to each service that you want to load balance.
Service options include HTTP, HTTPS, and TCP.
9 (Optional) Accept or edit the port and health check settings for each selected service.
10 Enter the address for the selected service in the URL for HTTP service text box.
There is only a single URL available for the HTTP service control for each load balancer.
11 Click Finish to save the blueprint as draft or continue configuring the blueprint.
The configured settings are available on the Network tab in the associated vSphere machine component.
Associating Network and Security Components
You can drag network and security components onto the design canvas to make their settings available
for machine component configuration in the blueprint. After you have defined network and security
settings for the machine, you can optionally associate settings from a load balancer component.
After you add an NSX network or security component to the canvas and define its available settings, you
can open the network and security tabs of a vSphere machine component in the canvas and configure its
settings.
