========================

Upstream clusters provide an ability to inject network level (L3/L4)
:ref:`filters <arch_overview_network_filters>`. The filters apply to the
connection to the upstream hosts, using the same API presented by listeners for
filters. It should be noted that network fitler needs to
be registered in code as an upstream filter before usage. Currently
there are no upstream filters available in envoy out of the box.
The filters apply to the connection to the upstream hosts, using the same API presented by listeners for
the downstream connections. The write callbacks are invoked for any chunk of
data sent to the upstream host, and the read callbacks are invoked for data
received from the upstream host.
