Create a Route

After you’ve installed all of the required components and configured a GatewayClass you can route some traffic to a service in your Kubernetes cluster.

Configure the echo service

In order to route a request using Kong Gateway we need a service running in our cluster. Install an echo service using the following command:
```
 kubectl apply -f https://docs.jp.konghq.com/assets/kubernetes-ingress-controller/examples/echo-service.yaml
```

Create a HTTPRoute to send any requests that start with /echo to the echo service.

echo '
kind: HTTPRoute
apiVersion: gateway.networking.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
  name: echo
spec:
  parentRefs:
    - group: gateway.networking.k8s.io
      kind: Gateway
      name: kong
  rules:
    - matches:
        - path:
            type: PathPrefix
            value: /echo
      backendRefs:
        - name: echo
          port: 1027
' | kubectl apply -f -

The results should look like this:

httproute.gateway.networking.k8s.io/echo created

Test the configuration

Run kubectl get gateway kong -n default to get the IP address for the gateway and set that as the value for the variable PROXY_IP.
```
 export PROXY_IP=$(kubectl get gateway kong -n default -o jsonpath='{.status.addresses[0].value}')
```
Note: if your cluster can not provision LoadBalancer type Services then the IP you receive may only be routable from within the cluster.
Make a call to the $PROXY_IP that you configured.
```
 curl $PROXY_IP/echo
```
You should see the following:
```
 Welcome, you are connected to node king.
 Running on Pod echo-965f7cf84-rm7wq.
 In namespace default.
 With IP address 192.168.194.10.
```
Congratulations! You just configured Kong Gateway Operator, Kong Ingress Controller and Kong Gateway using open standards.

Next steps

Now that you have a running DataPlane configured using Gateway API resources, you can explore the power that Kong Gateway provides:
