Updating a Listener¶

Function¶

This API is used to update a listener.

Constraints¶

If the provisioning status of the load balancer that the listener is added to is not ACTIVE, the listener cannot be updated. Only the administrator can specify connection_limit.

URI¶

PUT /v3/{project_id}/elb/listeners/{listener_id}

**Table 1** Path parameters¶
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
listener_id	Yes	String	Specifies the listener ID.
project_id	Yes	String	Specifies the tenant ID.

Request Parameters¶

Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
X-Auth-Token	Yes	String	Specifies the token used for IAM authentication.

**Table 3** Request body parameters¶
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
listener	Yes	UpdateListenerOption object	Specifies the listener.

**Table 4** UpdateListenerOption¶
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
admin_state_up	No	Boolean	Specifies the administrative status of the listener. And the value can only be true. This parameter is unsupported. Please do not use it.
client_ca_tls_container_ref	No	String	Specifies the ID of the CA certificate used by the listener.

description	No	String	Provides supplementary information about the listener. Minimum: 1 Maximum: 255
http2_enable	No	Boolean	Specifies whether to use HTTP/2. This parameter is available only for HTTPS listeners. If you configure this parameter for other types of listeners, it will not take effect. Enable HTTP/2 if you want the clients to use HTTP/2 to communicate with the load balancer. However, connections between the load balancer and backend servers use HTTP/1.x by default. Default: true

name	No	String	Specifies the listener name. Minimum: 1 Maximum: 255
sni_container_refs	No	Array of strings	Lists the IDs of SNI certificates (server certificates with domain names) used by the listener. Each SNI certificate can have up to 30 domain names, and each domain name in the SNI certificate must be unique. This parameter will be ignored and an empty array will be returned if the listener's protocol is not HTTPS.
tls_ciphers_policy	No	String	Specifies the security policy used by the listener. This parameter is available only for HTTPS listeners. The default value is tls-1-0. An error will be returned if the protocol of the listener is not HTTPS. Value options: tls-1-0 tls-1-1 tls-1-2 tls-1-2-strict
enable_member_retry	No	Boolean	Specifies whether to enable health check retries for backend servers. This parameter is unsupported. Please do not use it. Default: false

keepalive_timeout	No	Integer	Specifies the idle timeout duration, in seconds. For TCP listeners, the value ranges from 10 to 4000, and the default value is 300. For HTTP and HTTPS listeners, the value ranges from 0 to 4000, and the default value is 60. For UDP listeners, this parameter is invalid.
ipgroup	No	UpdateListenerIpGroupOption object	Specifies the IP address group associated with the listener. The value can be null or an empty JSON structure, indicating that no IP address group is associated with the listener. ipgroup_id is also required if you want to associate an IP address group with the listener. This parameter is unsupported. Please do not use it.

enhance_l7policy_enable	No	Boolean	Specifies whether to enable advanced forwarding. The value can be true or false (default). true indicates that advanced forwarding will be enabled. Advanced forwarding cannot be disabled once it is enabled. false indicates that advanced forwarding will not be enabled.

Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
ipgroup_id	No	String	Specifies the ID of the IP address group associated with the listener. If ip_list is set to [] and type to whitelist, no IP addresses are allowed to access the listener. If ip_list is set to [] and type to blacklist, any IP address is allowed to access the listener. The specified IP address group must exist and this parameter cannot be set to null. IP address groups are not supported for now.
enable_ipgroup	No	Boolean	Specifies whether access control is enabled. true: Access control is enabled. false: Access control is disabled. A listener with access control enabled can be directly deleted.
type	No	String	Specifies how access to the listener is controlled. white: A whitelist is configured. Only IP addresses in the whitelist can access the listener. black: A blacklist is configured. IP addresses in the blacklist are not allowed to access the listener.
