I'm not sure I quite understand - you want to join an existing load
balancer with a static IP? Or you just want to use teh static IP for a new
load balancer (and fail if that IP is in-use already)?

It sounds like what you want is an L7 router, not an L3 load balancer that
we currently have.

Caveat: My exposure, at the moment, is purely via GKE:

Client Version: version.Info{Major:"0", Minor:"13+", GitVersion:"v0.13.1-1-ga68dc88831fc5d", GitCommit:"a68dc88831fc5da80a7dd5a79e0f4097b6a58920", GitTreeState:"clean"}
Server Version: version.Info{Major:"0", Minor:"13+", GitVersion:"v0.13.2-1-g58b98aca84becd", GitCommit:"58b98aca84becdabbfc8d719c47b375a6a1bc855", GitTreeState:"clean"}

I have a desire to maintain a single external IP address. This seems
simplest; I can use the same DNS name as I have in my SSL certificate for
all of the services I'm running. So, to that end, I requested a static IP
address in GCE and have manually created the low-level loadbalancer for it
and specified the static IP in my publicIPs list (without
createExternalLoadBalancer) for the services I want externalized. This
works, but it required a lot of tinkering with firewalls and target pools
and experimentation with the createExternalLoadBalancer flag before I
figured out the right combination. The first thing I tried was this:

id: frontendkind: ServiceapiVersion: v1beta1selector:
app: frontendlabels:
app: frontendcontainerPort: 80port: 80createExternalLoadBalancer: truepublicIPs:- 330.201.152.515

If it would be possible for that to be a valid input that would cause the
GCE/GKE provider to create the right firewall, target pools, and load
balancer (bonus points if it made one that was shared among all services
with the same external IP), it might save some time for future intrepid
explorers.

#6452.

In GCE, you can set up multiple load-balancers on the same IP address (though not the same port, obviously). I want to specify the IP address that will be used for creating the forwarding-rule, essentially.

That should already work - I just scanned through the relevant code - if
you provide an IP, we'll try to use it for the forewarding rule.

#6452 (comment)
.

I confirm this works. Phabricator example is doing exactly this.

I am trying to understand what are the options in Openstack? I tested with PublicIP's , works great , but obviously , has manual things that needs to be taken care of.

Appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks

What specifically are you looking for help with? createExternalLoadBalancer should work properly in openstack, although you may get hit by #7199, which was just fixed today.

My understanding was createExternalLB worked only with GCE, totally wrong!!

I guess Neutron LBaaS should be enabled to take advantage of cELB, do we need any other openstack projects besides neutron?

configuration or setup changes we need to be aware of?

Thanks
Sriram

Not that I know of, but I haven't tried it myself. If you run into any issues with it, be sure to let us know!

Thanks Alex. Will let you know how it goes.
