HttpPolicyLbVirtualServer
Virtual server acts as a facade to an application, receives all client connections over HTTP and distributes them among the backend servers.

Timestamp of resource creation
ID of the user who created this resource
Timestamp of last modification
ID of the user who last modified this resource
The server will populate this field when returing the resource. Ignored on PUT and POST.
Protection status is one of the following: PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is not allowed to modify it. NOT_PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is allowed to modify it REQUIRE_OVERRIDE - the client who retrieved the entity is a super user and can modify it, but only when providing the request header X-Allow-Overwrite=true. UNKNOWN - the _protection field could not be determined for this entity.
The _revision property describes the current revision of the resource. To prevent clients from overwriting each other’s changes, PUT operations must include the current _revision of the resource, which clients should obtain by issuing a GET operation. If the _revision provided in a PUT request is missing or stale, the operation will be rejected.
Schema for this resource
Indicates system owned resource
If access log is enabled, all HTTP requests sent to an L7 virtual server are logged to the access log file. Both successful requests (backend server returns 2xx) and unsuccessful requests (backend server returns 4xx or 5xx) are logged to access log, if enabled.
subtree for this type within policy tree containing nested elements.
Description of this resource
Defaults to ID if not set
Unique identifier of this resource
Backend web servers typically log each request they handle along with the requesting client IP address. These logs are used for debugging, analytics and other such purposes. If the deployment topology requires enabling SNAT on the load balancer, then server will see the client as the SNAT IP which defeats the purpose of logging. To work around this issue, load balancer can be configured to insert XFF HTTP header with the original client IP address. Backend servers can then be configured to log the IP address in XFF header instead of the source IP address of the connection. If XFF header is not present in the incoming request, load balancer inserts a new XFF header with the client IP address.
Configures the IP address of the PolicyLbVirtualServer where it receives all client connections and distributes them among the backend servers.
Path to optional object that enables persistence on a virtual server allowing related client connections to be sent to the same backend server. Persistence is disabled by default.
Intent objects are not directly deleted from the system when a delete is invoked on them. They are marked for deletion and only when all the realized entities for that intent object gets deleted, the intent object is deleted. Objects that are marked for deletion are not returned in GET call. One can use the search API to get these objects.

Path to router type object that PolicyLbVirtualServer connects to. The only supported router object is Network.
