# Update & Delete a Listener

Use this guide to modify or remove listeners from your Application Load Balancers (ALBs).

#### Updating a Listener

2. **Select Your Load Balancer:** Click on the Load Balancer containing the listener you want to edit.
3. **Go to the Listener Tab:** In the Load Balancer details page, select the "Listener" tab.
4. **Review Listener Details:** Click on the listener you want to edit in the list. Review its details on the right side of the screen, including:
   * Listener information
   * Policy information (if applicable)
   * Certificate information (for HTTPS listeners)
5. **Click "Edit":** Click the "Edit" icon next to the listener you want to modify.
6. **Make Changes:** A pop-up window will appear, allowing you to edit the following:
   * **Request Headers:** Modify the headers that are added to requests.
   * **Client Certificate Authentication (HTTPS):** Enable or disable client certificate authentication (see Client Certificate Authentication for details).
   * **Default Certificate (HTTPS):** Change the default SSL/TLS certificate.
   * **Default Pool:** Change the pool that handles requests not covered by policies.

     * Configure timeouts
     * Configure IP whitelists
7. **Save Changes:** Click "Save" to finalize your edits.

#### Deleting a Listener

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.vngcloud.vn/vng-cloud-document/load-balancer/application-load-balancer/listener/update-and-delete-a-listener.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
