+## Load balancers
+
+Two LB implementations coexist: k3s klipper (servicelb) and MetalLB. They are
+separated by `loadBalancerClass` so they don't conflict.
+
+- **klipper** handles services with NO `loadBalancerClass`. It creates svclb
+  DaemonSet pods that bind host ports directly on every node.
+- **MetalLB** handles services with `loadBalancerClass: metallb`. Its pool has
+  `autoAssign: false`, so it only assigns IPs to services that explicitly
+  request a pool via the `metallb.io/address-pool` annotation.
+
+| Service          | loadBalancerClass | LB       | External IPs            |
+|------------------|-------------------|----------|-------------------------|
+| traefik          | (none)            | klipper  | node IPs (10.0.1.2 etc) |
+| traefik-internal | metallb           | MetalLB  | 10.0.1.250              |
+
+`loadBalancerClass` is immutable on k8s Services. Changing it requires deleting
+the Service first, then redeploying (`kubectl delete svc … && helm upgrade`).
