snap 4

Step 4: Enter the Disk Details and click next snap 5

Step 5: Enter the Networking Interface Details snap 6

Step 6: Set to Default configuration in management, advanced and tags tab

Step 7: Review and Click Create to create the virtual machine snap 7

Step 8: The Deployment is successful snap 8

Step 9: Again, Create another virtual machine the virtual machine name secondary-server snap 9

Step10: After Create the two Virtual Copy the public Ip address and login via ssh snap 10

snap 11

Step 11: Next Check the Ip Address for Two virtual machine and install the Apache webserver by using following commands. snap 12

Step 12: After install the Apache webserver give full permission for html file and change the Apache webserver default page by using following commands snap 14

Step 13: Next, go to the browser browse the primary and secondary Virtual machine Ip address snap 15

snap 21

Step 15: After creating the load balancer go to resource create a add health probe snap 22

snap 23

Step 16: Next check the load balancer Ip address and virtual machine Ip address for same. Go to browser browse the Ip address. Automatically open server2 again refresh the page change server1 machine. snap 24

snap 25 Step 17: Open Virtual machine and stop primary-server. Go to the browser again refresh the page all service redirect for the secondary server. snap 26

Frequently asked questions ( 5 )

Q

What types of Azure Load Balancers exist?

A

Internal load balancers, which load balance traffic within a virtual network.
External load balancers, which load balance external traffic to an internet-connected endpoint. For more information, see Azure Load Balancer Types.
For both types, Azure offers a basic SKU and standard SKU that have different functional, performance, security, and health tracking capabilities. For more information about the other load balancer SKUs, see SKU Comparison.

Q

How can I upgrade from a basic to a standard load balancer?

A

For more information about an automated script and guidance on upgrading a load balancer SKU, see an upgrade from Basic to Standard.

Q

What is the different load-balancing options in Azure?

A

For the available load-balancing services and recommended uses for each, see the load-balancer technology guide.

Q

Where can I find the load balancer ARM templates?

A

See the list of Azure Load Balancer QuickStart templates for ARM templates of typical deployments.

Q

How are inbound NAT rules different from load-balancing rules?

A

Inbound NAT rules are used to specify a backend resource to route traffic to. For example, configuring a specific load balancer port to send RDP traffic to a specific VM. Load-balancing rules are used to specify a pool of backend resources to route traffic to, balancing the load across each instance. For example, a load balancer rule can route TCP packets on port 80 of the load balancer across a pool of web servers.
