## Introduction
|
|
|
|
The `GatewayClassConfig` object contains Consul API Gateway-related configuration parameters. Apply the parameters by adding the [`GatewayClass`](#gatewayclass) object to your Kubernetes values file and specifying the name of the `GatewayClassConfig`.

Refer to the [Kubernetes documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/assign-pod-node/) for additional information.

## Example Configuration
|
|
The following example creates a gateway class configuration called `example-gateway-class-config`. Traffic that passes through gateways created from the class configuration authenticates with Consul over HTTPS on port `8501`. Consul client agents communicate with server agents on port `8502`:
|
|
|
|
<CodeBlockConfig filename="gateway.yaml">
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
apiVersion: api-gateway.consul.hashicorp.com/v1alpha1
|
|
kind: GatewayClassConfig
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: example-gateway-class-config
|
|
spec:
|
|
useHostPorts: true
|
|
logLevel: 'trace'
|
|
consul:
|
|
scheme: 'https'
|
|
ports:
|
|
http: 8501
|
|
grpc: 8502
|
|
```
|
|
</CodeBlockConfig>
|
|
|
|
