+Configuring Envoy as an edge proxy
+==================================
+
+Envoy is a production-ready edge proxy, however, the default settings are tailored
+for the service mesh use case, and some values need to be adjusted when using Envoy
+as an edge proxy.
+
+TCP proxies should configure:
+
+* restrict access to the admin endpoint,
+* :ref:`overload_manager <config_overload_manager>`,
+* :ref:`listener buffer limits <envoy_api_field_Listener.per_connection_buffer_limit_bytes>` to 32 KiB,
+* :ref:`cluster buffer limits <envoy_api_field_Cluster.per_connection_buffer_limit_bytes>` to 32 KiB.
+
+HTTP proxies should additionally configure:
+
+* :ref:`use_remote_address <envoy_api_field_config.filter.network.http_connection_manager.v2.HttpConnectionManager.use_remote_address>`
+  to true (to avoid consuming HTTP headers from external clients, see :ref:`HTTP header sanitizing <config_http_conn_man_header_sanitizing>`
+  for details),
+* :ref:`connection and stream timeouts <faq_configuration_timeouts>`,
+* :ref:`HTTP/2 maximum concurrent streams limit <envoy_api_field_core.Http2ProtocolOptions.max_concurrent_streams>` to 100,
+* :ref:`HTTP/2 initial stream window size limit <envoy_api_field_core.Http2ProtocolOptions.initial_stream_window_size>` to 64 KiB,
+* :ref:`HTTP/2 initial connection window size limit <envoy_api_field_core.Http2ProtocolOptions.initial_connection_window_size>` to 1 MiB.
+
+The following is a YAML example of the above recommendation.
