### Changeable properties:

* public\_ips
* lans
* rules

## Examples

### To list resources:

```bash
puppet resource application_loadbalancer
```

> ***NOTE:*** If two resources have the same name only one of them will be shown.

### To create, update or delete a resource:

```ruby
$datacenter_name = 'testdc3'
$lan_name = 'test1'

datacenter { $datacenter_name :
  ensure      => present,
  location    => 'de/fkb',
  description => 'my data center desc.'
}
-> lan { $lan_name :
  ensure          => present,
  public          => true,
  datacenter_name => $datacenter_name

          response_message => 'Application Down',
          content_type     => 'text/html',
          conditions       => [

      server_certificates => [
      ],
      http_rules          => [

      ]
    },
  ]
}
```

> ***NOTE:*** If two resources with the same name ar found an error will be thrown, this only applies to cases where the resource cannot be identified. Example: an error is thrown for two servers with the same name in the same datacenter, not for two servers with the same name, but in different datacenters.
