      What problem/issue/behavior are you having trouble with? What do you expect to see?
      This is a feature request to add support to create OpenShift routes to services of type ExternalName.

      This comes from a partner request who would like to Configure the OpenShift Router as the Ingress for the Kuma Mesh.

      Desired Solution:

      • ExternalName type Service is created (With Ports defined)
      • An Endpoint object is creating by looking up the address of the ExternalName Service
        Then a route could be created.

      What is the business impact? 

      The business impact is that this would open the door for OpenShift customers currently using other Edge Gateways and Meshes and give them the capacity for a lot more functionality.

      Where are you experiencing the behavior? What environment?

      When does the behavior occur? Frequency? Repeatedly? At certain times?
