# Gateway
This topic provides full details about the `Gateway` resource.
## Introduction
A `Gateway` is an instance of network infrastructure that determines how service traffic should be handled. A `Gateway` contains one or more `listeners` that bind to a set of IP addresses. An `HTTPRoute` or `TCPRoute` can then attach to a gateway listener to direct traffic from the gateway to a service.
Gateway instances derive their configurations from the [`GatewayClass`](/docs/api-gateway/configuration/gatewayclass) resource, which acts as a template for individual `Gateway` deployments. Refer to [GatewayClass](/docs/api-gateway/configuration/gatewayclass) for additional information.
Specify the following parameters to declare a Gateway:
| Parameter | Description | Required |
| :----------- |:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |:-------- |
| `kind` | Specifies the type of configuration object. The value should always be `Gateway`. | Required |
| `description` | Human-readable string that describes the purpose of the `Gateway`. | Optional |
| `version ` | Specifies the Kubernetes API version. The value should always be `gateway.networking.k8s.io/v1alpha2` | Required |
| `scope` | Specifies the effective scope of the Gateway. The value should always be `namespaced`. | Required |
| `fields` | Specifies the configurations for the Gateway. The fields are listed in the [configuration model](#configuration-model). Details for each field are described in the [specification](#specification). | Required |

## Specification
This topic provides details about the configuration parameters.
### gatewayClassName
Specifies the name of the [`GatewayClass`](/docs/api-gateway/configuration/gatewayclass) resource used for the `Gateway` instance. Unless a custom [GatewayClass](/docs/api-gateway/configuration/gatewayclass) is being used, value should be set to `consul-api-gateway`
* Type: string
* Required: required
### listeners
Specifies the `listeners` associated with the `Gateway`. At least one `listener` must be specified. Each `listener` within a `Gateway` must have a unique combination of `hostname`, `port`, and `protocol`.
* Type: array of objects
* Required: required
### listeners.allowedRoutes
Specifies a `namespace` object that defines the types of routes that may be attached to a listener.
* Type: object
* Required: required
### listeners.allowedRoutes.namespaces
Determines which routes are allowed to attach to the `listener`. Only routes in the same namespace as the `Gateway` may be attached by default.
### listeners.allowedRoutes.namespaces.from
Determines which namespaces are allowed to attach a route to the `Gateway`. You can specify one of the following strings:
* `All`: Routes in all namespaces may be attached to the `Gateway`.
* `Same` (default): Only routes in the same namespace as the `Gateway` may be attached.
* `Selector`: Only routes in namespaces that match the [`selector`](#listeners-allowedroutes-namespaces-selector) may be attached.
This parameter is required.
### listeners.allowedRoutes.namespaces.selector
Specifies a method for selecting routes that are allowed to attach to the listener. The `Gateway` checks for namespaces in the network that match either a regular expression or a label. Routes from the matching namespace are allowed to attach to the listener.
You can configure one of the following objects:
* [`matchExpressions`](#listeners-allowedroutes-namespaces-selector-matchexpressions)
* [`matchLabels`](#listeners-allowedroutes-namespaces-selector-matchlabels)
This field is required when [`from`](#listeners-allowedroutes-namespaces-from) is configured to `Selector`.
### listeners.allowedRoutes.namespaces.selector.matchExpressions
Specifies an array of requirements for matching namespaces. If a match is found, then routes from the matching namespace(s) are allowed to attach to the `Gateway`. The following table describes members of the `matchExpressions` array:
| Requirement | Description | Type | Required |
|--- |--- |--- |--- |
|`key` | Specifies the label that the `key` applies to. | string | required when `matchExpressions` is declared |
|`operator` | Specifies the key's relation to a set of values. You can use the following keywords: <ul><li>`In`: Only routes in namespaces that contain the strings in the `values` field can attach to the `Gateway`. </li><li>`NotIn`: Routes in namespaces that do not contain the strings in the `values` field can attach to the `Gateway`. </li><li>`Exists`: Routes in namespaces that contain the `key` value are allowed to attach to the `Gateway`.</li><li>`DoesNotExist`: Routes in namespaces that do not contain the `key` value are allowed to attach to the `Gateway`.</li></ul> | string | required when `matchExpressions` is declared |
|`values` | Specifies an array of string values. If `operator` is configured to `In` or `NotIn`, then the `values` array must contain values. If `operator` is configured to `Exists` or `DoesNotExist`, then the `values` array must be empty. This array is replaced during a strategic merge patch. | array of strings | required when `matchExpressions` is declared |
In the following example, routes in namespaces that contain `foo` and `bar` are allowed to attach routes to the `Gateway`.
```yaml
namespaceSelector:
matchExpressions:
- key: kubernetes.io/metadata.name
operator: In
values:
- foo
- bar
```
### listeners.allowedRoutes.namespaces.selector.matchLabels
Specifies an array of labels and label values. If a match is found, then routes with the matching label(s) are allowed to attach to the `Gateway`. This selector can contain any arbitrary key/value pair.
In the following example, routes in namespaces that have a `bar` label are allowed to attache to the `Gateway`.
```yaml
namespaceSelector:
matchLabels:
foo: bar
```
Refer to [Labels and Selectors](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/working-with-objects/labels/) in the Kubernetes documentation for additional information about labels.
### listeners.hostname
Specifies the `listener`'s hostname.
* Type: string
* Required: required
### listeners.name
Specifies the `listener`'s name.
* Type: string
* Required: required
### listeners.port
Specifies the port number that the `listener` attaches to.
* Type: integer
* Required: required
### listeners.protocol
Specifies the protocol the `listener` communicates on.
* Type: string
* Required: required
Allowed values are `TCP`, `HTTP`, or `HTTPS`
### listeners.tls
Specifies the `tls` configurations for the `Gateway`. The `tls` object is required if `protocol` is set to `HTTPS`. The object contains the following fields:
| Parameter | Description | Type | Required |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `certificateRefs` | <div style={{width:480}}>Specifies Kubernetes `name` and `namespace` objects that contains TLS certificates and private keys. <br/>The certificates establish a TLS handshake for requests that match the `hostname` of the associated `listener`. Each reference must be a Kubernetes Secret. If you are using a Secret in a namespace other than the `Gateway`'s, each reference must also have a corresponding [`ReferencePolicy`](https://gateway-api.sigs.k8s.io/v1alpha2/references/spec/#gateway.networking.k8s.io/v1alpha2.ReferencePolicy).</div> | Object or array | Required if `tls` is set |
| `mode` | Specifies the ? | string | Required if `certificateRefs` is set |
| `options` | ??? | Map of strings | optional |
In the following example, `tls` settings are configured . . .
```yaml
tls:
certificateRefs:
name: ?
namespace: ?
mode: ?
options:
- ?
- ?
- ?
```
