Hello @mhvharsha  ,Welcome on Google Cloud Community.

My first question is: Did you've checked your LB via this command ?

gcloud beta compute addresses describe ADDRESS_NAME \
    --format="get(address)" \
    --region="us-west1"

You can test your load balancer using a web browser by going to https://IP_ADDRESS (or http://IP_ADDRESS). Replace IP_ADDRESS with the load balancer's IP address.

My second question is: Did you've allowed ICMP on your FW ? it might be possible, that ICMP is not enabled ( configured ) so by default it will be disabled and ping will not gonna work.

PS: If you want to make some traffic, you can utilize this simple bash script

#!/usr/bin/env bash

read -p "Provide URL: " URL
  for i in {1..100000}
 do
    curl -s -k 'GET' -H 'header info' -b 'stuff' $URL
 done
