You can configure API gateways to use JWTs to verify incoming requests so that you can stop unverified traffic at the gateway. You can configure JWT verification at different levels:
- Listener defaults: Define basic defaults that apply to all routes attached to a listener.
- Listener defaults: Define basic defaults in a GatewayPolicy resource to apply them to all routes attached to a listener.
- HTTP route-specific settings: You can define JWT authentication settings for specific HTTP routes. Route-specific JWT settings override default listener configurations.
- Listener overrides: Define override settings that take precedence over default and route-specific configurations. This enables you to set enforceable policies for listeners.
- Listener overrides: Define override settings in a GatewayPolicy resource that take precedence over default and route-specific configurations. Use override settings to set enforceable policies for listeners.
Complete the following steps to use JWTs to verify requests:
1. Define a policy that specifies default and override settings for API gateway listeners and attach it to the gateway.
1. Define an HTTP route auth filter that specifies route-specific JWT verification settings.
1. Attach the auth filter to the HTTP route values file.
1. Define a JWTProvider that specifies the JWT provider and claims used to verify requests to the gateway.
1. Define a GatewayPolicy that specifies default and override settings for API gateway listeners and attach it to the gateway.
1. Define a RouteAuthFilter that specifies route-specific JWT verification settings.
1. Reference the RouteAuthFilter from the HTTPRoute.
1. Apply the configurations.

## Define override and default settings
Create a `GatewayPolicy` values file and configure the following fields to define default and override settings for JWT verification. Refer to [`GatewayPolicy` configuration reference](/consul/docs/connect/gateways/api-gateway/configuration/gatewaypolicy) for details.
## Define a JWTProvider
Create a `JWTProvider` CRD that defines the JWT provider to verify claims against.
In the following example, the JWTProvider CRD contains a local JWKS. In production environments, use a production-grade JWKs endpoint instead.
<CodeBlockConfig filename="jwt-provider.yaml">

## Define a RouteAuthFilter
Create an `RouteAuthFilter` CRD that defines overrides for the default JWT verification configured in the GatewayPolicy.

- `metadata.name`: Specifies a name for the filter.
- `metadata.namespace`: Specifies the Consul namespace the filter applies to.
- `spec.jwt.providers`: Specifies a list of providers and claims used to verify requests to the gateway. The override settings take precedence over the default and route-specific JWT verification settings.
In the following example, the RouteAuthFilter overrides default settings set in the GatewayPolicy so that every request coming through the listener must meet these conditions:
- The request must be signed by the `local` provider
- The request must have a `role` claim

For more information about the fields you can configure, refer to [`RouteAuthFilter` configuration reference](/consul/docs/connect/gateways/api-gateway/configuration/routeauthfilter).
## Attach the auth filter to your HTTP routes
In the `filters` field of your HTTP route configuration, add the following fields. Refer to the [`extensionRef` configuration reference](/consul/docs/connect/gateways/api-gateway/configuration/routes#rules-filters-extensionref) for details:
In the `filters` field of your HTTPRoute configuration, define the filter behavior that results from JWT verification.
- `type: extensionRef`: Declare list of extension references.
- `extensionRef.group`: Specifies the resource group. Unless you have created a custom group, this should be set to `gateway.networking.kubernetes.io`.
- `extensionRef.kind`: Specifies the type of extension reference to attach to the route. Must be `RouteAuthFilter`
- `extensionRef.name`: Specifies the name of the auth filter.
## Apply the configurations
The following example configures an HTTPRoute so that every request to `api-gateway-fqdn:3002/admin` must meet these conditions:
Run the `kubectl apply` command and specify the values files to apply the configurations. The following example applies the values files stored in the `jwt-routes` directory:
- The request be signed by the `local` provider.
- The request must have a `role` claim.
- The value of the claim must be `admin`.
```shell-session
$ kubectl apply -f jwt-routes
Every other request must be signed by the `local` provider and have a claim of `role` with a value of `user`, as defined in the GatewayPolicy.
