Create a new target group/backend​

Target Groups

We have an existing target group going to our app which serves on port 8080. We're going to create a new one with identical settings, the only difference will be the port 4143.

Make sure to configure the health check correctly, it should be identical to the existing one.

Target Groups

Check the security groups​

Make sure the security groups/firewall rules for the load balancer and the VM allow traffic to flow between them.

The inbound group for the EC2 should allow traffic on 4143

Security Group

The outbound group for the ALB should allow traffic out to 4143 as well

Security Group

Modify the listener​

Listeners

We have an existing listener where HTTP traffic is forwarded to our listener called user that hit our app directly. We're going to edit this so that the load balancer forwards traffic to our new target group.

Listeners

That's it! Now all traffic will be forwarded to the Speedscale proxy and be available for analysis
