+title: "Request Buffering"
+---
+
+The [Envoy buffer filter] is used to stop filter iteration and wait for a fully buffered complete request. This is useful in different situations including protecting some applications from having to deal with partial requests and high network latency.
+
+Enabling request buffering requires specifying a size limit for the buffer. Any requests that are larger than the limit will stop the buffering and return a HTTP 413 Content Too Large response. 
+
+Envoy Gateway introduces a new CRD called [BackendTrafficPolicy][] that allows the user to enable request buffering.
+This instantiated resource can be linked to a [Gateway][], or [HTTPRoute][].
+
+If the target of the BackendTrafficPolicy is a Gateway, the request buffering will be applied to all xRoutes under that Gateway.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+{{< boilerplate prerequisites >}}
+
+## Configuration
+
+Enable request buffering by creating an [BackendTrafficPolicy][BackendTrafficPolicy] and attaching it to the example HTTPRoute.
+

+Save and apply the following resources to your cluster:

+metadata:
+  name: request-buffer
+spec:
+  targetRefs:
+  - group: gateway.networking.k8s.io
+    kind: HTTPRoute
+    name: foo
+  requestBuffer:
+    limit: 4 # Supports SI units e.g. 4Ki, 1Mi
+---
+apiVersion: gateway.networking.k8s.io/v1
+kind: HTTPRoute
+metadata:
+  name: foo
+spec:
+  parentRefs:
+  - name: eg
+  hostnames:
+  - "www.example.com"
+  rules:
+  - backendRefs:
+    - group: ""
+      kind: Service
+      name: backend
+      port: 3000
+      weight: 1
+    matches:
+    - path:
+        type: PathPrefix
+        value: /foo
+```
+
+{{% /tab %}}
+{{< /tabpane >}}
+
+A HTTPRoute resource is created for the `/foo` path prefix. The `request-buffer` BackendTrafficPolicy has been created and targeted HTTPRoute foo to enable request buffering. A small buffer limit of `4` bytes is purposely chosen to make testing easier.
+
+Verify the HTTPRoute configuration and status:
+
+```shell
+kubectl get httproute/foo -o yaml
+```
+
+Verify the BackendTrafficPolicy configuration:
+
+```shell
+kubectl get backendtrafficpolicy/request-buffer -o yaml
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+Ensure the `GATEWAY_HOST` environment variable from the [Quickstart](../../quickstart) is set. If not, follow the
+Quickstart instructions to set the variable.
+
+```shell
+echo $GATEWAY_HOST
+```
+
+### HTTPRoute
+
+We will try sending a request with an empty json object that is less than the buffer limit of 4 bytes
+
+```shell
+curl -H "Host: www.example.com" "http://${GATEWAY_HOST}/foo" -XPOST -d '{}'
+```
+
+We will see the following output. The `Content-Length` header will be added by the buffer filter.
+
+```
+{
+ "path": "/foo",
+ "host": "www.example.com",
+ "method": "POST",
+ "proto": "HTTP/1.1",
+ "headers": {
+  "Accept": [
+   "*/*"
+  ],
+  "Content-Length": [
+   "2"
+  ],
+  "Content-Type": [
+   "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
+  ],
+  "User-Agent": [
+   "curl/8.7.1"
+  ],
+  "X-Envoy-External-Address": [
+   "127.0.0.1"
+  ],
+  "X-Forwarded-For": [
+   "10.244.0.2"
+  ],
+  "X-Forwarded-Proto": [
+   "http"
+  ],
+  "X-Request-Id": [
+   "daf7067e-a9e5-48da-86d2-6f5d9ccfb57e"
+  ]
+ },
+ "namespace": "default",
+ "ingress": "",
+ "service": "",
+ "pod": "backend-869c8646c5-9vm4l"
+}
+```
+
+Next we will try sending a json object that is larger than 4 bytes. We will also write the status code to make it clear.
+
+```shell
+curl -H "Host: www.example.com" "http://${GATEWAY_HOST}/foo" -XPOST -d '{"key": "value"}' -w "\nStatus Code: %{http_code}"
+```
+
+We will now see that sending a payload of `{"key": "value"}` which is larger than the request buffer limit of 4 bytes returns a 
+HTTP 413 Payload Too Large response
+
+```
+Payload Too Large
+Status Code: 413
+```
+
+## Clean-Up
+
+Follow the steps from the [Quickstart](../../quickstart) to uninstall Envoy Gateway and the example manifest.
+
+Delete the BackendTrafficPolicy and HTTPRoute:
+
+```shell
+kubectl delete httproute/foo
+kubectl delete backendtrafficpolicy/request-buffer
+```
