 ## TLS
 
-TLS and `lb_domains` apply only when `load_balancing_scheme = "EXTERNAL_MANAGED"`.
-For `INTERNAL_MANAGED`, set `lb_domains = []` (or leave it unset) and `allow_plaintext_lb = true`.
+TLS is supported for both LB schemes, with different certificate inputs:
+
+- `EXTERNAL_MANAGED`: set `lb_domains`; this module creates a Google-managed cert
+- `INTERNAL_MANAGED`: set both `lb_domains` and `certificate_manager_certificates`; this module uses your pre-existing Certificate Manager certificates
 
 `terraform plan` refuses to provision an HTTP-only LB by default — TLS
 is the supported posture. Two paths:
