Compliance evaluation logic

  • If the access control feature is configured for the listeners of each SLB instance, the evaluation result is Compliant.
  • If the access control feature is not configured for a running listener of an SLB instance, the evaluation result is Incompliant. For more information about how to remediate an incompliant configuration, see Incompliance remediation.
  • This rule does not apply to SLB instances for which no listeners are configured.
