    Configure an AWS Classic Load Balancer for ECS

    This guide shows you how to configure a Classic Load Balancer in AWS for Prisma Cloud Console. Console serves its UI and API over HTTPS on port 8083, and Defender communicates with Console over a websocket on port 8084. You’ll set up a single load balancer to forward requests for both port 8083 and 8084 to Console, with the load balancer checking Console’s health using the /api/v1/_ping endpoint on port 8083.
    1. Log into the AWS Management Console.

      Services > Compute > EC2
