- [Configure Replicas](https://docs.mulesoft.com/gateway/1.9/flex-local-rep-run) - Anypoint Flex Gateway enables you to create replicas,
  which are instances of Flex Gateway. By default, Flex Gateway runs as a single replica. Running
  multiple replicas enables scaling, load balancing, and high availability.

- [Configure TLS Context](https://docs.mulesoft.com/gateway/1.9/flex-local-tls-config) - Flex Gateway enables you to configure a TLS
  context to support regular TLS and mTLS in both inbound and outbound directions.

- [Configure Shared Storage](https://docs.mulesoft.com/gateway/1.9/flex-local-shared-storage-config) - Flex Gateway enables you to
  configure shared storage for distributed caching and rate limiting policies.

- [Configure a Forward Proxy](https://docs.mulesoft.com/gateway/1.9/flex-local-forward-proxy) - Flex Gateway enables you to configure a
  forward proxy to route external HTTP connections through a proxy connection.

- [Configure a Liveness Check](https://docs.mulesoft.com/gateway/1.9/flex-local-readiness-liveness) - Flex Gateway enables you to run a
  liveness check command to test gateway health. Additionally, Flex Gateways deployed on Kubernetes
  include a liveness probe to automatically restart pods after a specified number of failed checks.

- [Configure PROXY Protocol](https://docs.mulesoft.com/gateway/1.9/flex-local-proxy-protocol) - Flex Gateway supports PROXY protocol to
  perserve client IP address when servicing multi-layer connections.
