When running kubectl get nodes, why we don’t see the load balancer?

Hi @Aldo_Escudero !!
When running kubectl get nodes, you don’t see the load balancer because Kubernetes itself does not directly manage load balancers. Kubernetes typically delegates the responsibility of managing load balancers to cloud providers or external solutions.

The output of kubectl get nodes displays information about the nodes in your Kubernetes cluster, including their status, roles, age, and version. It primarily focuses on the nodes themselves, not on any load balancers that may be in use within your infrastructure.
Happy Learning :blush:
