External Loadbalancer in dynatrace managed for webUI

Hi Team,

Is it possible to put external load balancer for Dynatrace cluster node WEBUI . The requirement to use loadbalancer as per the diagram below. Loadbalancer will call to any node with http:nodeIP:8022 instead of https.

Hi,

No, this is explicitly not supported.

We have our own Nginx listening on :8022 and use the local host's firewall to redirect :443 to :8022 internally. This is so we do not need elevated privileges for Nginx to listen on :443 directly. :8022 is listening for incoming https:// connections.

We also explicitly do not support unencrypted connections to the Managed Cluster in any context, and there is nothing on the current road map to change this.

Our guidelines for putting a separate load balancer in front of the cluster are available here:
