Feature Request - UDP support

[prakash-halan]

Please describe your use case / problem.
Use case, need to load balance/proxy UDP traffic between network devices and application which is running on k8s. Device sends SNMP notification to the application via UDP only

Describe the solution you'd like
Ambassador should be support routing of UDP traffic.

Envoy Proxy looks like already support UDP now
envoyproxy/envoy#5108

[prakash-halan]

Can anyone please update on this ?

[asitaru]

We also have this use case. Being based on envoy which supports UDP is what made us consider Ambassador.

We'd love to have a community member contribute a PR on this! @asitaru? @prakash-halan?

We need this feature as well for UDP support.

We need this feature as well

[buehler]

Why is this issue closed?
It is a valid feature request to have UDP support. Moreover when you have a type TCPMapping. To match parity, there should be a UDPMapping as well. There are many services that could use such a thing and people are bound to have some hacks or workarounds for this now.

@richarddli Can this issue be re-opened? Kubernetes is adding support for UDP in the Loadbalancers kubernetes/kubernetes#40244

[buehler]

I copy pasted the issue an reopened a new one.

[ark3]

Re-opening. Sorry about that.

I'm not sure what happened with stalebot here:

Yet we only added stalebot this calendar year (2020).

I would like this feature as well. A lot of my services require UDP.
