 * Cross-region load balancers are a special type of standard public load balancer that can span multiple regions. The frontend of a cross-region load balancer can only be used with the global tier option of standard SKU public IPs. Traffic sent to the frontend IP of a cross-region load balancer is distributed across the regional public load balancers. The regional frontend IPs are contained in the backend pool of the cross-region load balancer. For more information, see [Cross-region load balancer](../../load-balancer/cross-region-overview.md).
 
-* By default, a public load balancer won't allow you to use multiple load-balancing rules with the same backend port. If a multiple rule configuration to the same backend port is required, then enable the floating IP option for a load-balancing rule. This setting overwrites the destination IP address of the traffic sent to the backend pool. Without floating IP enabled, the destination will be the backend pool private IP. With floating IP enabled, the destination IP will be the load balancer frontend public IP. The backend instance must have this public IP configured in its network configuration to correctly receive this traffic. A loopback interface with the frontend IP address must be configured in the instance. For more information, see [Azure Load Balancer Floating IP configuration](../../load-balancer/load-balancer-floating-ip.md).
