Enable Loadbalance feature on GCP - baremetal k8s

Hello

I found this article https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx/deploy/baremetal/
but based on MetalLB documentaion it is not available for VMs on GCP :(
https://metallb.universe.tf/installation/clouds/

Is there any options to enable Loadbalance feature for baremetal k8s hosted on GCP?

    Hello,

    If you use the Google Kubernetes environment they provide the feature. But if you are using GCE, which doesn't have any of their provided services, would not have this option. Instead you could leverage on of several open source load balancers, such as HAProxy.

  • Hi @MaratGainutdinov,

    The MetalLB was not designed to support cloud infrastructures.
    You may use a GCP external LB instead, described here.
