what is svclb-frontend?

[liyimeng]

After running kubectl create -f deploy/ranchervm.yaml, I got a deployment like below. I am curious what is svclb-frontend, where did it come from? It is not define in the yaml as I see.

 iserver [~]$ kubectl -n ranchervm-system get all

@liyimeng the point of svclb-frontend is to provide access to the Rancher VM console/API. This can easily be replaced with an ingress object (or just use the kubernetes service proxy)

Thanks @Oats87 a lot! I have traefik lb deployed, and I have define ingress using traefik, it dose work. How to I remove this LB? I don't see when it was deployed from.
