Set-NsxLoadBalancer

NAME Set-NsxLoadBalancer



SYNOPSIS

Configures an NSX LoadBalancer.





SYNTAX

Set-NsxLoadBalancer [-LoadBalancer] <XmlElement> [-Enabled] [-EnableAcceleration] [-EnableLogging] [-LogLevel

<String>] [-Connection <PSObject>] [<CommonParameters>]





DESCRIPTION

An NSX Edge Service Gateway provides all NSX Edge services such as firewall,

NAT, DHCP, VPN, load balancing, and high availability.



The NSX Edge load balancer enables network traffic to follow multiple paths

to a specific destination. It distributes incoming service requests evenly

among multiple servers in such a way that the load distribution is

transparent to users. Load balancing thus helps in achieving optimal

resource utilization, maximizing throughput, minimizing response time, and

avoiding overload. NSX Edge provides load balancing up to Layer 7.



This cmdlet sets the basic LoadBalancer configuration of an NSX Load Balancer.
