Note

While configuring an external load balancer for GCP, ensure that the frontend and backend certificates are in the same format.

Prerequisites

  • Reserve a static IP address for the load balancer. See Google documentation for more details.

  • Create a Proxy-only subnet in the VPC you are using. See Google documentation for more details.

  • SSL or TLS enabled on Kyvos and Kyvos Manager

Firewall Rules

  1. Rule to allow Google health check to the Virtual Machine.

    1. Target: Service Account which is used by Kyvos VMs

    2. Source IP Ranges: 35.191.0.0/16, 130.211.0.0/22

    3. Protocol: tcp -> ports 8443,9443

  2. Rule to allow access to selected ports from load balancer to Virtual Machine Target:

    1. Service Account which is used by Kyvos VMs

    2. Source IP Ranges: CIDR of the Proxy only Subnet

    3. Protocol: tcp -> 8443, 9443

Note:

Without source filter as Proxy-only subnet you will get the upstream request timeout while browsing the Application Load Balancer URL.
