HTTPRoute.spec.rules[].timeouts.backendRequest

BackendRequest specifies a timeout for an individual request from the gateway to a backend. This covers the time from when the request first starts being sent from the gateway to when the full response has been received from the backend. Setting a timeout to the zero duration (e.g. "0s") SHOULD disable the timeout completely. Implementations that cannot completely disable the timeout MUST instead interpret the zero duration as the longest possible value to which the timeout can be set. An entire client HTTP transaction with a gateway, covered by the Request timeout, may result in more than one call from the gateway to the destination backend, for example, if automatic retries are supported. The value of BackendRequest must be a Gateway API Duration string as defined by GEP-2257. When this field is unspecified, its behavior is implementation-specific; when specified, the value of BackendRequest must be no more than the value of the Request timeout (since the Request timeout encompasses the BackendRequest timeout).
