Available scope: Network, Vpc, LoadBalancerRule
Available APIs to create/delete/update/list load balancer configs. A new API replaceLoadBalancerConfigs will be added to replace all current LB configs with passed configs.
When create/update/delet/replace lb configs, cloudstack will re-apply new load balancer configs
1. generate new haproxy.cfg , based on our changes
2. apply new haproxy.cfg in VRs.
3. When VR is rebooted/recreated, the haproxy.cfg is also created based on our configs.
For advanced features, more changes are needed
1. Transparent LB. Beside the new haproxy.cfg, it will add some firewall rules in VRs.
2. SSL offloading, it requires some changes on UI, and copied the SSL certificate to VRs.
