Overview #
Load balancing is essential for distributing incoming network traffic across multiple backend servers to ensure high availability, reliability, and performance. In iVolve-Cloud, the Load Balancers module consists of three key components:
- Load Balancers – The main entry point that distributes traffic.
- Listeners – Define how traffic is received on the load balancer.
- Pools – A group of backend servers that handle the requests.
A Listener defines how the Load Balancer accepts incoming network traffic. It listens on a specific protocol and port and forwards requests to the backend Pool.
List Listeners #

The Listeners listing page includes:
- Login to iVolve-Cloud.
- Navigate to Providers >> <Provider Name> >> Networking >> Listeners under the customer interface to view the list of all the Listeners. Following are the column attributes of these Listeners on the listing page:

- Protocol – The network protocol (e.g., HTTP, HTTPS, TCP).
- Port – The port number for traffic.
- Operating Status – Shows the current operational state.
- Provisioning Status – Displays the provisioning state.
- Admin State – Indicates whether the Listener is active.
