# Speaker pod fails to announce service if ExternalTrafficPolicy is changed to Local

## Problem

* Speaker pod fails to announce service if ExternalTrafficPolicy is changed to Local.
* This happens only for a speaker pod running on a specific node of the cluster.

## Environment

* Platform9 Managed Kubernetes - v5.4.0
* Kubernetes version v1.21
* Cluster with MetalLB

## Cause

* If MetalLB is deployed with l2advertisement feature, then corresponding label is needed on the node.

## Resolution

* Apply correct label on the node which is used for l2advertisement feature.
