Creating Path Route Sets

On Compute Cloud@Customer, you can create a path route set to route URIs to load balancer (LB) backend sets. To create a path route set, a backend set must already exist.

See Managing Path Route Sets for information about URI patterns, pattern match types, and path route set limits.

    1. In the Compute Cloud@Customer Console navigation menu, select Networking, then select Load Balancers.

    2. Select the name of LB for which you want to create the path route set.
    3. Under Resources, select Path Route Sets.
    4. Select Create Path Route Set.

    5. Enter the following information:

      • Name: Enter a descriptive name for the Path Route Set. Avoid entering confidential information.

      • Path Route Rules: Enter the following information:

        • Match Style: Select Exact Match, Force Longest Prefix Match, Prefix Match, or Suffix Match. The match style must match the URL string entered next.
        • URL String: Enter the pattern to match.
        • Backend Set: Select the name of the backend set from the drop-down list.

        To create another rule, select the New Rule button.

    6. Select Create Path Route Set.

  • Use the oci lb path-route-set create command and required parameters to create a path route set for a load balancer resource to distinguish by unique URL paths such as /admin/, /data/, /video/, or /cgi/.

    oci lb path-route-set create --name name-of-path-route-set \
    --path-routes [COMPLEX-TYPE] --load-balancer-id load-balancer_OCID 

    For a complete list of CLI commands, flags, and options, see the Command Line Reference.

  • Use the CreatePathRouteSet operation to add a path route set to a load balancer.
