Istio resources

Calisti provides a UI in the dashboard where you can view and configure Istio custom resources with ease. Some examples of the usage of the Istio resources are traffic routing configurations, inbound and outbound mesh traffic configurations, Authorization Policy for workloads in the mesh configurations, and adding service entries.

The MENU > ISTIO RESOURCES page of the Service Mesh Manager web interface allows you to:

• View the Istio resources that are already configured
• Create new Istio resources using the templates provided in the dashboard easily
• Edit the existing Istio resources
• Delete the Istio resources
• Filter the list of resources with Namespace and the Type
• Validate your configuration in the YAML editor before applying
