#### To Create an HTTP Load Balancer (Step 1 of 2)

1. In the tree component, select the HTTP Load Balancers node.

2. On the HTTP Load Balancers page, click New.

   The New HTTP Load Balancer page appears.

3. Enter a name for the load balancer.

   This name must not conflict with any other load balancers in the domain.

4. Click the Enabled check box, if you want changes to the load balancer configuration to be pushed to the load balancer whenever the configuration changes.

5. In the Device Host field, type the host name of the web server or other load balancer device.

6. In the Device Port field, type the port number used to communicate with the load balancing device. It must be SSL-enabled.

7. In the Proxy Host field, type the name of the proxy host used for outbound HTTP.

8. In the Proxy Port field, type the proxy port number used for outbound HTTP.

9. Select the target or targets for the load balancer.

   The load balancer handles requests for the instances or clusters you select. You can also add targets later.

10. Click OK to create the load balancer (or lb configuration?). ***check with the reviewers
