Enable zonal shift for your Network Load Balancer - Elastic Load Balancing
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Enable zonal shift for your Network Load Balancer

Zonal shift is disabled by default and must be enabled on each Network Load Balancer. This ensures that you can start a zonal shift using only the specific Network Load Balancers that you want. For more information, see Zonal shift for your Network Load Balancer.

Prerequisites

If you enable cross-zone load balancing for the load balancer, every target group attached to the load balancer must meet the following requirements before you can enable zonal shift.

  • The target group protocol must be TCP or TLS.

  • The target group type must not be alb.

  • Connection termination for unhealthy targets must be disabled.

  • The load_balancing.cross_zone.enabled target group attribute must be true or use_load_balancer_configuration (the default).
