Overview
The Load Balancer Enterprise ADC for AWS provides advanced Layer 4/7 load balancing, automatically distributing incoming application traffic across EC2 instances either in a single Availability Zone, or across multiple Zones. Traffic can be distributed on the internal Amazon network (reducing bandwidth costs), or to any accessible internet address.
Dual AZ mode enables an HA pair of load balancer instances to be split between different AZ's, further increasing system resilience. Full support for Service Discovery, including integration with AWS Auto Scaling which ensures that servers or containers are automatically added to the load balanced cluster as backend capacity is increased to meet inbound traffic demands.
Support for TCP and UDP enables load balancing of virtually any protocol. SSL termination and re-encryption - coupled with a built-in, OWASP top 10 compliant WAF - enables you to create a secure, robust interface for your infrastructure. URL re-writing / content switching can be used to direct traffic based on defined rules.
Advanced, customizable health checks ensure detection of unhealthy instances within a pool and automatically reroutes traffic to healthy instances. This great product comes fully-featured with a totally unrestricted license enabling all features and full scalability.

Version release notes
New Features & Improvements
- DNS support for Layer 7: Hostnames may be used as the address for a Layer 7 Real Server. HAProxy is now made aware of changes made to the DNS Settings via the WebUI.
- SSH Root Access: Configuring root SSH access via the WebUI on AWS is now possible to facilitate HA pairing on that platform.
- Update Check: An online update check is made immediately after running initial setup so that the result is immediately available when logging into the WebUI for the first time.
- Setup CLI: The initial setup program lbsetup (and its alias lb_net_setup.php) now accept named arguments which allow the user to pass all the data that they can interactive-mode.
Bug Fixes
- GSLB: The GSLB service now checks for and starts all missing, required services on reload instead of requiring the user to restart the GSLB service manually the first time they configure the GSLB service.
- WebUI Accounts: Passwords for WebUI accounts are now synchronised in both directions on pairing appliances. Nodes will now keep their existing passwords in all situations, previously passwords from the secondary node would overwrite those on the primary node in the case of a conflict.
- AWS HA Failover: Local modifications to the contents of the azhaFailover script will be preserved across upgrades. The script is now included in backups and Technical Support Downloads.
- WebUI Styling: Fixed styling issues which resulted in non-purple title-bars for some modals.
- WebUI Styling: Fixed styling issues on the SSL Certificates page.
- WebUI Styling: Fixed styling issues where the Freetype field in the Edit ACL modal was unhelpfully small.
- PFX Certificates: It is now possible to upload a PFX certificate with a space in its name.
- Bonded Interface Restore: Previously restoring to/from a configuration that used bonded interfaces resulted in a running configuration that might not match the on-disk configuration, this is no longer the case.
- SNMP Engine ID: Some appliance images shipped with an SNMP Engine ID pre-configured. Restoring the appliance to factory defaults now clears the SNMP Engine ID.
Security Updates
- SSH Forwarding Mitigation: All forwarding methods are now disabled by default to mitigate CVE-2025-32728.

High availability design has simplified managing clustered servers and improved uptime
Reviewed on Jun 25, 2026
Review from a verified AWS customer
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for LoadBalancer Enterprise is for high availability, as we always have primary and secondary servers. When one is down, the second one is good to handle the load. Instead of providing two IPs or two DNS, we put a load balancer IP, and the load balancer will automatically switch over to either one. We also use it for traffic distribution, particularly for routing based on API hits.
What is most valuable?
LoadBalancer Enterprise offers two types of load balancers: application-based and traffic-based. This is the main feature, allowing it to route based on traffic and server. It always sends data to one server, and once that is down, it picks the second.
We rely more on server-based routing in our environment because we work with many servers for important tools such as Splunk, Cribl , and Dynatrace . We always have standby servers, so if the primary encounters an issue, we can easily route our traffic to the active secondary server in our active-passive scenario.
LoadBalancer Enterprise has a good user interface, making it easy to manage, and the failover functionality is also impressive. The product itself is very stable.
LoadBalancer Enterprise has positively impacted my organization by allowing me to manage my Splunk cluster indexers with 10 servers behind one load balancer. I don't need to remember all 10 IPs, and I can easily add new servers to the group managed by the load balancer.
This approach has reduced many errors. Previously, when a server went down, it took a long time until someone reported it. Now, we achieve about 99% availability across all servers thanks to the health check feature in the load balancer.
What needs improvement?
LoadBalancer Enterprise is a very stable product that meets our needs. If they could reduce the prices, it would be beneficial.
Documentation needs improvement because having information is essential for working with advanced configurations. Advanced features in AWS settings could also be better documented, and reporting and analytics could be made more advanced to offer better traffic insights.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using LoadBalancer Enterprise for almost six or seven years, as I use it in all the companies I work for.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
LoadBalancer Enterprise is mostly seamless; however, if both servers are down, we need maintenance. In 90% to 99% of cases, I can say it is seamless.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
LoadBalancer Enterprise is easy to scale, maintain, and modify, which makes adding or removing servers a simple process.
How are customer service and support?
Customer support is good; generally, we don't need much support since the product is stable, but they respond immediately when we do reach out. I rate customer support a 10.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We didn't use any other solutions prior to LoadBalancer Enterprise, although I was aware of F5, we decided against purchasing it.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I don't know about the pricing since I never personally purchased it; the setup cost is cheap and licensing is also reasonably priced.

Incredibly Fast, Thorough Support That Saved Our Load Balancer Recovery
Reviewed on Apr 23, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I ran into an issue with our secondary load balancer after an upgrade, and the response was both incredibly fast and very thorough. After I emailed Tech Solutions and the suggested steps unfortunately didn’t work, a call was arranged very quickly. I had two techs on the call, and eventually a third, more senior engineer joined, which I really appreciated.
Unfortunately, we weren’t able to save the second load balancer, but they offered to help me set up two brand-new ones. Due to the nature of our business, we weren’t able to facilitate that at the time. Instead, when I asked, they provided the current OS from our primary server so I could recover the second load balancer. Excellent service all around!

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing at all. The only thing I couldn’t find was any specific commands beyond the standard Linux ones that I could use. That said, it wasn’t really an issue, since I went through everything with tech support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We rely on the load balancers for our Aderant billing system, which is the backbone of our company. Getting the second one up and running so quickly was brilliant.
