// [#protodoc-title: Common rate limit components]

// A RateLimitDescriptor is a list of hierarchical entries that are used by the service to
// determine the final rate limit key and overall allowed limit. Here are some examples of how
// they might be used for the domain "envoy".
//
// .. code-block:: cpp
//
//   ["authenticated": "false"], ["remote_address": "10.0.0.1"]
//
// What it does: Limits all unauthenticated traffic for the IP address 10.0.0.1. The
// configuration supplies a default limit for the *remote_address* key. If there is a desire to
// raise the limit for 10.0.0.1 or block it entirely it can be specified directly in the
// configuration.
//
// .. code-block:: cpp
//
//   ["authenticated": "false"], ["path": "/foo/bar"]
//
// What it does: Limits all unauthenticated traffic globally for a specific path (or prefix if
// configured that way in the service).
//
// .. code-block:: cpp
//
//   ["authenticated": "false"], ["path": "/foo/bar"], ["remote_address": "10.0.0.1"]
//
// What it does: Limits unauthenticated traffic to a specific path for a specific IP address.
// Like (1) we can raise/block specific IP addresses if we want with an override configuration.
//
// .. code-block:: cpp
//
//   ["authenticated": "true"], ["client_id": "foo"]
//
// What it does: Limits all traffic for an authenticated client "foo"
//
// .. code-block:: cpp
//
//   ["authenticated": "true"], ["client_id": "foo"], ["path": "/foo/bar"]
//
// What it does: Limits traffic to a specific path for an authenticated client "foo"
//
// The idea behind the API is that (1)/(2)/(3) and (4)/(5) can be sent in 1 request if desired.
// This enables building complex application scenarios with a generic backend.
