Proposed title of this feature request

Allow creation of route when using http input in ClusterLogForwarder

What is the nature and description of the request?

When using http input config, it triggers creation of a service named "<CLF-name>-<input-name>" but the purpose of http input is to get the audit logs of HCP cluster ingested.

As HCP cluster runs on top of OCP management cluster and audit logs of HCP cluster are captured in a sidecar container called "audit-logs" which is injected with core components of HCP cluster (running in "clusters-<HCP-cluster-name>".

This means that if the logs needs to be ingested by Vector running on HCP cluster, then "route" needs to be exposed, so that the route can be used on management cluster as the output. Service created on HCP cluster can't be used as an output on Management cluster.

To avoid manual step of create a route on HCP cluster, it would be better to expose it directly from the product side.

Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements)

Creating route is a manual effort and it needs to be created everytime when HCP audit logs needs to be shipped to a vector instance running on HCP cluster.

List any affected packages or components.

Log Collection (Vector)
