## EKS Troubleshooting

If you're unable to access your Coder deployment via the external IP generated
by EKS, this is likely due to Load Balancer health checks failing. See the
related [GitHub
issue](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/80897#issuecomment-567911824)
for more information.
To resolve this, set the `externalTrafficPolicy` Helm value to `Cluster`
by running the following command:

```console
helm upgrade --install coder coder/coder --set coderd.serviceSpec.externalTrafficPolicy=Cluster
```

Note that setting `externalTrafficPolicy` to `Cluster` masks the source IP
address of your Coder users. For more information on this value, [see the
Kubernetes documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/access-application-cluster/create-external-load-balancer/#preserving-the-client-source-ip).
