ELB 설정을 하게 되면 다음 두가지를 선택하도록 되어 있다.
어떤 것을 선택해야 할지 의문을 갖게 되는… ㅋ
아래 내용을 참고 하시면 되겠다…
웹(HTTP,HTTPS) 의 경우는 새로 나온 application load balancer 를 사용 하는게 더 쉽게 느껴지는 듯.

† Cross-zone load balancing is always enabled for an Application Load Balancer. For a Classic Load Balancer, it is disabled by default, but can be enabled and disabled as needed.
† † For an Application Load Balancer, you can specify the HTTP codes that indicate a successful health check response. An Application Load Balancer returns improved information about the cause of health check failures.
