+# Request Routing in Kmesh
+
+This document explains how to configure HTTP request routing at Layer 7 using Kmesh. Request routing allows you to control how traffic is directed to different backend services based on URL paths.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before starting, you should have:
+
+- A Kubernetes cluster with Istio and Kmesh installed
+- Gateway API CRDs applied
+- Deployed services, such as httpbin and sleep
+- The appropriate label set on your namespace to enable Kmesh
+
+## Use Case: Path-Based Routing
+
+This example routes traffic to two different versions of the httpbin service, depending on the requested URL path.
+
+- Requests to paths beginning with /v1 are sent to httpbin-v1
+- Requests to paths beginning with /v2 are sent to httpbin-v2
+
+## Step 1: Deploy Sample Workloads
+
+```bash
+kubectl create namespace example
+kubectl label namespace example istio.io/dataplane-mode=Kmesh
+kubectl apply -n example -f samples/httpbin/httpbin-v1.yaml
+kubectl apply -n example -f samples/httpbin/httpbin-v2.yaml
+kubectl apply -n example -f samples/sleep/sleep.yaml
+```
+
+## Step 2: Define Gateway and Route
+
+Save this configuration as http-route.yaml
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: gateway.networking.k8s.io/v1beta1
+kind: HTTPRoute
+meta
+  name: http-route
+  namespace: example
+spec:
+  parentRefs:
+  - name: example-gateway
+  rules:
+  - matches:
+    - path:
+        type: PathPrefix
+        value: /v1
+    backendRefs:
+    - name: httpbin-v1
+      port: 8000
+  - matches:
+    - path:
+        type: PathPrefix
+        value: /v2
+    backendRefs:
+    - name: httpbin-v2
+      port: 8000
+```
+
+Apply the configuration:
+
+```bash
+kubectl apply -f http-route.yaml
+```
+
+## Step 3: Verify Routing
+
+Open a shell in the sleep pod
+
+```bash
+kubectl -n example exec deploy/sleep -- bash
+```
+
+From within the pod, run
+
+```bash
+curl http://httpbin.example.svc.cluster.local:8000/v1/status/200
+curl http://httpbin.example.svc.cluster.local:8000/v2/status/200
+```
+
+You should see that the path for /v1 gets a response from httpbin-v1 and /v2 gets a response from httpbin-v2.
+
+## Notes and Limitations
+
+Header-based and regex path matching may require further validation. These instructions assume the example-gateway resource is present and working as expected.
