+# Example Load Balancer Configuration File
+# This file provides a template for configuring the load balancer settings
+# to be used with the load-balancer-tester plugin.
+
+# --- General Configuration ---
+# Name of the load balancer (used for identification)
+load_balancer_name = "my-load-balancer"
+
+# Load balancing strategy:
+# Options: round-robin, weighted-round-robin, least-connections, ip-hash
+load_balancing_strategy = "round-robin"
+
+# --- Backend Server Configuration ---
+# List of backend servers with their respective weights (if applicable)
+# Format: "server_address:port:weight"
+# Example: "192.168.1.10:8080:10", "192.168.1.11:8080:20", "192.168.1.12:8080" (default weight is 1)
+backend_servers = [
+  "server1.example.com:80:1",
+  "server2.example.com:80:1",
+  "server3.example.com:80:1"
+]
+
+# --- Health Check Configuration ---
+# Health check endpoint for backend servers
+health_check_endpoint = "/health"
+
+# Health check interval (in seconds)
+health_check_interval = 5
+
+# Health check timeout (in seconds)
+health_check_timeout = 2
+
+# Number of consecutive successful health checks required to mark a server as healthy
+healthy_threshold = 3
+
+# Number of consecutive failed health checks required to mark a server as unhealthy
+unhealthy_threshold = 3
+
+# --- Session Persistence (Sticky Sessions) Configuration ---
+# Enable or disable sticky sessions
+sticky_sessions_enabled = false
+
+# Cookie name for session persistence (if sticky sessions are enabled)
+sticky_session_cookie_name = "LB_SESSION"
+
+# --- Failover Configuration ---
+# Time to wait before considering a server as failed (in seconds)
+failover_timeout = 10
+
+# --- Traffic Distribution Validation ---
+# Number of requests to send for traffic distribution validation
+number_of_requests = 1000
+
+# --- Advanced Configuration (Optional) ---
+# Custom headers to be added to the requests
+# Format: "header_name:header_value"
+# Example: "X-Custom-Header:MyValue"
+custom_headers = [
+  # "X-Request-ID: $RANDOM_UUID" # Example - replace with your desired logic
+]
+
+# Request method to use for testing (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc.)
+request_method = "GET"
+
+# URL path to request.  Defaults to "/" if not provided.
+request_path = "/"
+
+# --- Notes ---
+# - Replace the placeholder values with your actual load balancer configuration.
+# - Ensure that the backend servers are accessible from the machine running the plugin.
+# - Adjust the health check parameters based on your application's health check requirements.
+# - For weighted round-robin, ensure that the weights are integers.
+# - Remember to save this file with a `.conf` extension (e.g., `my_load_balancer.conf`).
+# - The plugin will read this file to configure the load balancer testing.
