+At the command level, Envoy only supports commands that can be reliably hashed to a server. AUTH, PING and ECHO
 are the only exceptions. AUTH is processed locally by Envoy if a downstream password has been configured,
 and no other commands will be processed until authentication is successful when a password has been
 configured. Envoy will transparently issue AUTH commands upon connecting to upstream servers, if upstream
 authentication passwords are configured for the cluster. Envoy responds to PING immediately with PONG.
