The following diagram illustrates the flow of unauthenticated traffic with a `PERMISSIVE` policy:

```mermaid
graph TD;
src[src pod]-->|plaintext port|ztunnel{"ztunnel (L4 policy applied here)"}
ztunnel{ztunnel}-->|TLS|wp{waypoint}
wp-->|mTLS|ztunnel
ztunnel-->|plaintext|dst[dst pod]
```

And here's an example of an authenticated request to a captured destination:

```mermaid
