fix(self-managed): validate external LLM routing - #1204
Conversation
Move Envoy Gateway Service annotations to EnvoyProxy, document controller-specific NLB configuration and the existing backend-router Gateway API path, and define the certificate reload and remote-cluster trust contracts. Reject partial backend-router dial overrides and add rendered configuration and documentation example regressions. Tests: self-managed Helmfile render checks; gateway-routes and llm-request-router chart tests; short BDD suite; Fern validation. Signed-off-by: Mike Camp <mcamp@nvidia.com>

@coderabbitai Addressed the remaining review note in 82a0332. docs/user/gateway-routing.md now shows separate remote-worker TCP registration/watch and UDP reverse-tunnel paths through the Gateway listeners, TCPRoute and UDPRoute, the llm-request-router-backend-router Service, the backend router, and the request-router pod. Targeted docs validation passes. |

TL;DR
Correct self-managed external LLM routing configuration and guidance across Gateway exposure, remote-cluster endpoints, and transport TLS rotation.
Additional Details
Live cloud-controller route status, provider load-balancer behavior, and cross-region TCP or UDP reachability remain deployment acceptance checks.
For the Reviewer
Please look closely at:
The generated skilldata diff is large because the source prompt is embedded as generated byte data.
For QA
Validated locally:
QA needed: verify Gateway Programmed, route Accepted and ResolvedRefs, external TCP and UDP reachability, DNS, SNI, and trust distribution in a representative deployment.
