# stackit_loadbalancer (Data Source)

Load Balancer data source schema. Must have a `region` specified in the provider configuration.

## Example Usage

```terraform
data "stackit_loadbalancer" "example" {
  project_id = "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
  name       = "example-load-balancer"
}
```

## Schema

### Required

- `name` (String) Load balancer name.
- `project_id` (String) STACKIT project ID to which the Load Balancer is associated.

### Optional

- `region` (String) The resource region. If not defined, the provider region is used.

### Read-Only

- `external_address` (String) External Load Balancer IP address where this Load Balancer is exposed.
- `id` (String) Terraform's internal resource ID. It is structured as "`project_id`","region","`name`".
- `listeners` (Attributes List) List of all listeners which will accept traffic. Limited to 20. (see [below for nested schema](#nestedatt--listeners))
- `networks` (Attributes List) List of networks that listeners and targets reside in. (see [below for nested schema](#nestedatt--networks))
- `options` (Attributes) Defines any optional functionality you want to have enabled on your load balancer. (see [below for nested schema](#nestedatt--options))
- `private_address` (String) Transient private Load Balancer IP address. It can change any time.
- `target_pools` (Attributes List) List of all target pools which will be used in the Load Balancer. Limited to 20. (see [below for nested schema](#nestedatt--target_pools))

### Nested Schema for `listeners`

Optional:

- `server_name_indicators` (Attributes List) A list of domain names to match in order to pass TLS traffic to the target pool in the current listener (see [below for nested schema](#nestedatt--listeners--server_name_indicators))

Read-Only:

- `display_name` (String)
- `port` (Number) Port number where we listen for traffic.
- `protocol` (String) Protocol is the highest network protocol we understand to load balance.
- `target_pool` (String) Reference target pool by target pool name.

### Nested Schema for `listeners.server_name_indicators`

Optional:

- `name` (String) A domain name to match in order to pass TLS traffic to the target pool in the current listener



<a id="nestedatt--networks"></a>
### Nested Schema for `networks`

Read-Only:

- `network_id` (String) Openstack network ID.
- `role` (String) The role defines how the load balancer is using the network.


<a id="nestedatt--options"></a>
### Nested Schema for `options`

Read-Only:

- `acl` (Set of String) Load Balancer is accessible only from an IP address in this range.
- `observability` (Attributes) We offer Load Balancer metrics observability via ARGUS or external solutions. (see [below for nested schema](#nestedatt--options--observability))
- `private_network_only` (Boolean) If true, Load Balancer is accessible only via a private network IP address.

<a id="nestedatt--options--observability"></a>
### Nested Schema for `options.observability`

Read-Only:

- `logs` (Attributes) Observability logs configuration. (see [below for nested schema](#nestedatt--options--observability--logs))

<a id="nestedatt--target_pools"></a>
### Nested Schema for `target_pools`

Optional:

- `session_persistence` (Attributes) Here you can setup various session persistence options, so far only "`use_source_ip_address`" is supported. (see [below for nested schema](#nestedatt--target_pools--session_persistence))

Read-Only:

- `active_health_check` (Attributes) (see [below for nested schema](#nestedatt--target_pools--active_health_check))

### Nested Schema for `target_pools.session_persistence`

Optional:

- `use_source_ip_address` (Boolean) If true then all connections from one source IP address are redirected to the same target. This setting changes the load balancing algorithm to Maglev.
