Connect load balancer to container instance inside a vertual network

Question

Hi,
I'm relatively new to Azure.
we are trying to POC a simple scenario of several container instances in the same virtual network and subnet.
we want one of the containers to be exposed from a public internet (inbound web service).

In order to do this, I set up a load balancer with a public ip.
But when I build the backend pool and connect it to the virtual network we can't find any virtual machine.

am I missing a step?

Answer 1

@Kessler, Avi , Placing an Azure Load Balancer in front of container instances in a networked container group is not supported. The feature of adding backend pool by IP address and virtual network is not currently supported for ACI containers.

Answer 2

Hello, Actually I found myself in the same trouble and I do not know how to solve it . I need to deploy container instance cluster behind load balancer in a private vnet for TCP communications. I tried to use the static ip of azure container instance as backend pool for the load balancer but the LB does not transfer request to the container instance . Also, tried Azure container apps , but I found another problem dealing with the change of the request source IP .
