When using type: LoadBalancer for a BitTorrent service like Transmission, it is highly recommended to set externalTrafficPolicy: Local. This preserves the client's source IP address, which is essential for peer connectivity, DHT performance, and adhering to tracker requirements.

Security Note: Changing the service type to LoadBalancer exposes the Web UI (port 9091) to the network. Please ensure that RPC authentication is enabled in your Transmission configuration to prevent unauthorized access.

Kubernetes requires all ports in a Service to be named when multiple ports are defined. The first port (9091) is missing a name in this manifest, which will cause a validation error (e.g., spec.ports[0].name: Required value) during deployment.

It appears that the update-manifests.sh script did not correctly propagate the name: webui field from the base service definition. Please ensure the generated manifests are correctly synchronized.
