We are running a crushFTP pod on AKS.

There are 2 loadBalancer services defined

external on port 2222

internal on ports 443, 8080, 9090 & 2222

When I log into the web-console, there is widget on the homepage which shows recent logins.

I set externalTrafficPolicy : "Local" for the internal loadBalancer, previously it was set to "Cluster", the external loadBalancer was always set to "Local".

Since making the change when I log into the web-console I can see my local IP shown in the recent login list.

However when I login on port 2222 on iether the internal or external service then the Cluster IP is logged in the recent login widget and not my local IP address.

    Hello @Neil Crow

    Thank you for your question.

    once you set externalTrafficPolicy : "Local" did you mention the port 2222?

    apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: example-service
spec:
  selector:
    app: example
  ports:
    - port: 2222
      targetPort: 2222
  externalTrafficPolicy: Local
  type: LoadBalancer

    please check this document if still you have an issue could you please share with me the YAML file to take a look at it? without any personal information or business info.

    Thank you!
