# 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` resource, which acts as a template for individual `Gateway` deployments. Refer to [GatewayClass](/docs/api-gateway/configuration/gatewayclass) for additional information.
|
|
|
|

|
* Type: object
|
|
* Required: required
|
|
|
|
### listeners.allowedRoutes.namespaces

|
|
### listeners.allowedRoutes.namespaces.from

|
* Same: Only routes in the same namespace as the Gateway may be attached.
|
|
* Selector: Only routes in namespaces that match the selector configuration may be attached.
|
|
|
|
### listeners.allowedRoutes.namespaces.selector
