If it 84 is not provided, the provider project is used. 85 86 * `protocol` - (Optional) The protocol for incoming requests. Defaults to 87 `HTTP`. 88 89 * `session_affinity` - (Optional) How to distribute load. Options are `NONE` (no 90 affinity), `CLIENT_IP`, `CLIENT_IP_PROTO`, or `CLIENT_IP_PORT_PROTO`. 91 Defaults to `NONE`. 92 93 * `region` - (Optional) The Region in which the created address should reside. 94 If it is not provided, the provider region is used. 95 96 * `timeout_sec` - (Optional) The number of secs to wait for a backend to respond 97 to a request before considering the request failed. Defaults to `30`. 98 99 100 **Backend** supports the following attributes: 101 102 * `group` - (Required) The name or URI of a Compute Engine instance group 103 (`google_compute_instance_group_manager.xyz.instance_group`) that can 104 receive traffic. 105 106 * `balancing_mode` - (Optional) Defines the strategy for balancing load. 107 Defaults to `UTILIZATION` 108 109 * `capacity_scaler` - (Optional) A float in the range [0, 1.0] that scales the 110 maximum parameters for the group (e.g., max rate). A value of 0.0 will cause 111 no requests to be sent to the group (i.e., it adds the group in a drained 112 state). The default is 1.0. 113 114 * `description` - (Optional) Textual description for the backend. 115 116 * `max_rate` - (Optional) Maximum requests per second (RPS) that the group can 117 handle. 118 119 * `max_rate_per_instance` - (Optional) The maximum per-instance requests per 120 second (RPS). 121 122 * `max_utilization` - (Optional) The target CPU utilization for the group as a 123 float in the range [0.0, 1.0]. This flag can only be provided when the 124 balancing mode is `UTILIZATION`. Defaults to `0.8`. 125 126 ## Attributes Reference 127 128 In addition to the arguments listed above, the following computed attributes are 129 exported: 130 131 * `fingerprint` - The fingerprint of the backend service. 132 133 * `self_link` - The URI of the created resource.
