Tips

Gateway Listener vs AWS Load Balancer Listener

See gateway-vs-aws-listeners.md for detailed information about the difference between Gateway API listeners and AWS Load Balancer listeners, including lifecycle, configuration, and settings management.

TLS section ignore

AWS load balancer controller seems to ignore the tls section in the listeners because the certificates are discovered in ACM via hostname matching

TLSRoute and SNI Routing

See nlb-sni-limitations.md for detailed information about why AWS NLB does not support SNI routing, TLSRoute non-conformance to Gateway API spec, and recommended architectural patterns using TCPRoute.

Protocols in Network Load Balancer

See protocols.md for detailed information about Gateway API and AWS NLB protocol concepts, mappings, and common scenarios.
