# This script provides a basic example of how to create an IPv6 load balancer using the Python SDK.
# NOTE: The provided subnet must be within an IPv6-enabled VCN.
#
# USAGE:
# `python examples/create_ipv6_load_balancer_example.py --compartment-id 'foo' --subnet-id 'bar' --display-name 'bat'`
#
# This script will create an IPv6 load balancer and
# accepts the following arguments:
#
#   * The compartment ID in which the load balancer will be created
#   * The subnet ID in which the load balancer will be created
#   * The shape of the load balancer to be created
#   * The display name for the load balancer to be created
