## Sidecar Mode Implementation Details

Istio CNI injection is currently based on the same Pod annotations used in init-container/inject mode.

### Selection API

- plugin config "exclude namespaces" applies first
- ambient is enabled if:
    - namespace label "istio.io/dataplane-mode" == "ambient", and/or pod label "istio.io/dataplane-mode" == "ambient"

namespace.

All ingress gateway have a "app:ingressgateway" label, used to identify it as an
ingress, and an "istio: ingressgateway$SUFFIX" label of Gateway selection.

The Gateways use "istio: ingressgateway$SUFFIX" selectors.

  // An object that describes the pod that will be created.
  // The DaemonSet will create exactly one copy of this pod on every node
  // that matches the template's node selector (or on every node if no node
  // selector is specified).
  // The only allowed template.spec.restartPolicy value is "Always".

1. Set env $WATCH_NAMESPACE (default value is "istio-system") and $LEADER_ELECTION_NAMESPACE (default value is "istio-operator")

1. Create the `WATCH_NAMESPACE` and `LEADER_ELECTION_NAMESPACE` if they are not created yet.

```bash
kubectl create ns $WATCH_NAMESPACE --dry-run -o yaml | kubectl apply -f -
kubectl create ns $LEADER_ELECTION_NAMESPACE --dry-run -o yaml | kubectl apply -f -
```

scope: WORKLOAD_SELECTOR
```

The above policies reject unauthenticated traffic at the ztunnel unless its destination is port 9090. For more complete examples, read through the [test cases](../../pilot/pkg/serviceregistry/kube/controller/ambientindex_test.go) in the `TestRBACConvert` function.
