Starting in v1.20, you can optionally disable node port allocation for a Service Type=LoadBalancer by setting
You can optionally disable node port allocation for a Service of `type=LoadBalancer`, by setting
the field `spec.allocateLoadBalancerNodePorts` to `false`. This should only be used for load balancer implementations
that route traffic directly to pods as opposed to using node ports. By default, `spec.allocateLoadBalancerNodePorts`
is `true` and type LoadBalancer Services will continue to allocate node ports. If `spec.allocateLoadBalancerNodePorts`
is set to `false` on an existing Service with allocated node ports, those node ports will NOT be de-allocated automatically.
is set to `false` on an existing Service with allocated node ports, those node ports will **not** be de-allocated automatically.
You must explicitly remove the `nodePorts` entry in every Service port to de-allocate those node ports.
You must enable the `ServiceLBNodePortControl` feature gate to use this field.
Your cluster must have the `ServiceLBNodePortControl`
[feature gate](/docs/reference/command-line-tools-reference/feature-gates/)
enabled to use this field.
For Kubernetes v{{< skew currentVersion >}}, this feature gate is enabled by default,
and you can use the `spec.allocateLoadBalancerNodePorts` field. For clusters running
other versions of Kubernetes, check the documentation for that release.
#### Specifying class of load balancer implementation {#load-balancer-class}
{{< feature-state for_k8s_version="v1.22" state="beta" >}}
`spec.loadBalancerClass` enables you to use a load balancer implementation other than the cloud provider default. This feature is available from v1.21, you must enable the `ServiceLoadBalancerClass` feature gate to use this field in v1.21, and the feature gate is enabled by default from v1.22 onwards.
`spec.loadBalancerClass` enables you to use a load balancer implementation other than the cloud provider default.
Your cluster must have the `ServiceLoadBalancerClass` [feature gate](/docs/reference/command-line-tools-reference/feature-gates/) enabled to use this field. For Kubernetes v{{< skew currentVersion >}}, this feature gate is enabled by default. For clusters running
other versions of Kubernetes, check the documentation for that release.
By default, `spec.loadBalancerClass` is `nil` and a `LoadBalancer` type of Service uses
the cloud provider's default load balancer implementation if the cluster is configured with
a cloud provider using the `--cloud-provider` component flag.
