Amazon Web Services (AWS) - List Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) Attributes using the AWS CLI


An Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) is typically used to load balance requests across two (or more) different EC2 instances. 

 

The aws elbv2 describe-load-balancers command can be used to list the Elastic Load Balancers that have been created. 

aws elbv2 describe-load-balancers

 

Something like this should be returned.

{
    "LoadBalancers": [
        {
            "LoadBalancerArn": "arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:us-east-1:713542074252:loadbalancer/app/my-load-balancer/ffd90871234abcde",
            "DNSName": "my-load-balancer-371234535.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com",
            "CanonicalHostedZoneId": "Z35SXDOTRQ7X7K",
            "CreatedTime": "2023-03-28T01:23:28.410000+00:00",

            "AvailabilityZones": [
                {

                    "SubnetId": "subnet-03f11411234f6abcd",
                    "LoadBalancerAddresses": []
                },
                {
                    "ZoneName": "us-east-1a",
                    "SubnetId": "subnet-03123451234f7ab34",
                    "LoadBalancerAddresses": []
                }
            ],

            ],
            "IpAddressType": "ipv4"
        }
    ]
}
 

 

The aws elbv2 describe-load-balancer-attributes command can be used to list the Load Balancer attributes, using the Amazon Resource Number (ARN) from the prior command.

aws elbv2 describe-load-balancer-attributes --load-balancer-arn arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:us-east-1:713542074252:loadbalancer/app/my-load-balancer/ffd90871234abcde
