protocol
string
Protocol defines the protocol for backend communication.
In the common case, the underlying transport protocol for the
proxied traffic will already have been determined and processed
by the dataplane at the routing step. Where this field is useful
is either for higher level protocols or asymmetrical protocol
configurations (e.g. version upgrades or h2c).
When set, the implementation uses the specified protocol when connecting
to this backend. When not set, the implementation will use the protocol
determined by the route or listener configuration.
Support: Core - HTTP, HTTP2, H2C, and HTTP11
Support: Extended - GRPC, MCP, TCP
enum:
TCP, HTTP, HTTP2, HTTP11, H2C, MCPtls object
TLS defines the TLS configuration that the implementation should use
when connecting to the backend.
ExternalHostname backends SHOULD have TLS configured; the lack of TLS
for external hostnames should be considered insecure and a security risk.
Support: Extended
clientCertificateRef object
ClientCertificateRef is a reference to a Secret containing the client
TLS certificate and private key for mutual TLS. This field is required
when mode is ClientAndServer and must be unset otherwise.

Validation contains TLS validation configuration for the backend connection.
caCertificateRefs []object
CACertificateRefs contains one or more references to Kubernetes objects that
contain a PEM-encoded TLS CA certificate bundle, which is used to
validate a TLS handshake between the Gateway and backend Pod.
If CACertificateRefs is empty or unspecified, then WellKnownCACertificates must be
specified. Only one of CACertificateRefs or WellKnownCACertificates may be specified,
not both. If CACertificateRefs is empty or unspecified, the configuration for
WellKnownCACertificates MUST be honored instead if supported by the implementation.
A CACertificateRef is invalid if:
* It refers to a resource that cannot be resolved (e.g., the referenced resource
does not exist) or is misconfigured (e.g., a ConfigMap does not contain a key
named `ca.crt`). In this case, the Reason must be set to `InvalidCACertificateRef`
and the Message of the Condition must indicate which reference is invalid and why.
* It refers to an unknown or unsupported kind of resource. In this case, the Reason
must be set to `InvalidKind` and the Message of the Condition must explain which
kind of resource is unknown or unsupported.
* It refers to a resource in another namespace. This may change in future
spec updates.
Implementations MAY choose to perform further validation of the certificate
content (e.g., checking expiry or enforcing specific formats). In such cases,
an implementation-specific Reason and Message must be set for the invalid reference.
In all cases, the implementation MUST ensure the `ResolvedRefs` Condition on
the BackendTLSPolicy is set to `status: False`, with a Reason and Message
that indicate the cause of the error. Connections using an invalid
CACertificateRef MUST fail, and the client MUST receive an HTTP 5xx error
response. If ALL CACertificateRefs are invalid, the implementation MUST also
ensure the `Accepted` Condition on the BackendTLSPolicy is set to
`status: False`, with a Reason `NoValidCACertificate`.
A single CACertificateRef to a Kubernetes ConfigMap kind has "Core" support.
Implementations MAY choose to support attaching multiple certificates to
a backend, but this behavior is implementation-specific.
Support: Core - An optional single reference to a Kubernetes ConfigMap,
with the CA certificate in a key named `ca.crt`.
Support: Implementation-specific - More than one reference, other kinds
of resources, or a single reference that includes multiple certificates.

but MUST NOT be used for authentication. If you want to use the value
of the Hostname field for authentication, you MUST add it to the SubjectAltNames list.

wellKnownCACertificates
string
WellKnownCACertificates specifies whether a well-known set of CA certificates
may be used in the TLS handshake between the gateway and backend pod.
If WellKnownCACertificates is unspecified or empty (""), then CACertificateRefs
must be specified with at least one entry for a valid configuration. Only one of
CACertificateRefs or WellKnownCACertificates may be specified, not both.
If an implementation does not support the WellKnownCACertificates field, or
the supplied value is not recognized, the implementation MUST ensure the
`Accepted` Condition on the BackendTLSPolicy is set to `status: False`, with
a Reason `Invalid`.
Valid values include:
* "System" - indicates that well-known system CA certificates should be used.
Implementations MAY define their own sets of CA certificates. Such definitions
MUST use an implementation-specific, prefixed name, such as

namespace
string
Namespace is the namespace of the referent. When unspecified, this refers
to the local namespace of the Route.
Note that there are specific rules for ParentRefs which cross namespace
boundaries. Cross-namespace references are only valid if they are explicitly
allowed by something in the namespace they are referring to. For example:
Gateway has the AllowedRoutes field, and ReferenceGrant provides a
generic way to enable any other kind of cross-namespace reference.
ParentRefs from a Route to a Service in the same namespace are "producer"
routes, which apply default routing rules to inbound connections from
any namespace to the Service.
ParentRefs from a Route to a Service in a different namespace are
"consumer" routes, and these routing rules are only applied to outbound
connections originating from the same namespace as the Route, for which
the intended destination of the connections are a Service targeted as a
ParentRef of the Route.

port
integer
Port is the network port this Route targets. It can be interpreted
differently based on the type of parent resource.
When the parent resource is a Gateway, this targets all listeners
listening on the specified port that also support this kind of Route(and
select this Route). It's not recommended to set `Port` unless the
networking behaviors specified in a Route must apply to a specific port
as opposed to a listener(s) whose port(s) may be changed. When both Port
and SectionName are specified, the name and port of the selected listener
must match both specified values.
When the parent resource is a Service, this targets a specific port in the
Service spec. When both Port (experimental) and SectionName are specified,
the name and port of the selected port must match both specified values.
Implementations MAY choose to support other parent resources.
Implementations supporting other types of parent resources MUST clearly
document how/if Port is interpreted.
For the purpose of status, an attachment is considered successful as
long as the parent resource accepts it partially. For example, Gateway
listeners can restrict which Routes can attach to them by Route kind,
namespace, or hostname. If 1 of 2 Gateway listeners accept attachment
from the referencing Route, the Route MUST be considered successfully
attached. If no Gateway listeners accept attachment from this Route,
the Route MUST be considered detached from the Gateway.

sectionName
string
SectionName is the name of a section within the target resource. In the
following resources, SectionName is interpreted as the following:
* Gateway: Listener name. When both Port (experimental) and SectionName
are specified, the name and port of the selected listener must match
both specified values.
* Service: Port name. When both Port (experimental) and SectionName
are specified, the name and port of the selected listener must match
both specified values.
Implementations MAY choose to support attaching Routes to other resources.
If that is the case, they MUST clearly document how SectionName is
interpreted.
When unspecified (empty string), this will reference the entire resource.
For the purpose of status, an attachment is considered successful if at
least one section in the parent resource accepts it. For example, Gateway
listeners can restrict which Routes can attach to them by Route kind,
namespace, or hostname. If 1 of 2 Gateway listeners accept attachment from
the referencing Route, the Route MUST be considered successfully
attached. If no Gateway listeners accept attachment from this Route, the
Route MUST be considered detached from the Gateway.
