I have been doing a bit of playing with the Envoy Proxy this week. One of the things I ran into that has been painful was configuring a listener to use SSL/TLS. Below is some sample config to make it easier for the next person to dig out the config necessary to make it happen.

static_resources:
  listeners:
  - address:
      socket_address:

            private_key:
              filename: "/etc/envoy/frontend-certs/service.key"
      filters:
      - name: envoy.http_connection_manager
        config:
          tracing:
            operation_name: egress
          access_log:
          - name: envoy.file_access_log
            config:
              path: "/dev/stdout"
          codec_type: auto
          stat_prefix: ingress_http
