注：以下讲述的按理环境场景是基于Kubernetes环境基础上部署的Istio环境。
涉及到Envoy概念介绍请参考深度解析Istio系列之流量控制篇。本文重点针对Envoy初始化场景进行拆解。
Istio-proxy（Envoy）作为Istio数据平面的重要组件，基于sidecar方式与业务应用混合部署到同一pod，为应用提供代理服务。Pilot作为控制平面组件，基于元数据的抽象层，屏蔽底层具体容器环境（Kubernetes或者docker），同时为Envoy的策略执行提供有效的数据支撑。那么Envoy如何获取Pilot所在地址的信息呢？
下面通过官网BookInfo案例中Productpage服务的配置文件来说明。
Pod容器说明
执行kubectl get deploy productpage-v1 -o yaml，获取productpage部署模板，如下所示：

模板中可见，除业务应用外，还包括istio-init，istio-proxy两个容器。istio-init作为Init Container类型，在应用容器启动之前启动，用来执行初始化任务。Istio-init主要初始化iptables规则，用于服务间调用时的请求拦截及转发。Istio-proxy是代理容器（即Envoy），容器中包含两个进程，分别是Pilot-agent进程和Envoy进程。前者负责生成Envoy启动所需的配置文件，启动Envoy进程。后者在服务调用发生时负责具体的策略执行。
Envoy配置信息详解
Envoy启动后，执行kubectl exec -it productpage-v1-7b96bbf89f-pj28l -c istio-proxy /bin/sh，进入istio-proxy容器内部，在/etc/istio/proxy目录下存在envoy-rev0.json配置文件，如图2所示：
深度解析Istio系列之Istio-proxy初始化篇
该文件是Pilot是Pilot-agent进程根据服务启动参数以及Kubernetes Server API的信息生成，配置文件框架如图3所示：
深度解析Istio系列之Istio-proxy初始化篇
Node包含的信息如图4所示：
深度解析Istio系列之Istio-proxy初始化篇
这里重点说明cluster属性，该属性值为productpage，说明当前的istio-proxy服务为productpage应用的代理服务，iptables将调用productpage服务请求拦截后，直接转发到该istio-proxy进行处理。
stats_config包含的信息如图5所示：
深度解析Istio系列之Istio-proxy初始化篇
static_config重点设定部分属性的命名规则。
admin包含的信息如图6所示：
深度解析Istio系列之Istio-proxy初始化篇
admin类似Envoy内部的一个管理器，暴露出的15000端口只能在容器内部被访问。
通过curl http://127.0.0.1:15000/help访问能获取其他接口信息，如下图7所示：
深度解析Istio系列之Istio-proxy初始化篇
dynamic_resources包含的信息如图8所示：
深度解析Istio系列之Istio-proxy初始化篇
dynamic_resources中记录pilot调取XDS接口采用ADS聚合发现服务，这种方式能更好的保证从pilot上获取到的数据的一致性。
static_resources包含的部分信息如图9所示：
深度解析Istio系列之Istio-proxy初始化篇
static_resources name属性值为xds-grpc，与上述dynamic_resources模块的信息里cluster_name的值一致。同时xds-grpc对象信息中包括pilot组件的服务地址“istio-pilot.istio-system:15010”，即为istio-proxy从pilot获取动态信息的服务地址。Istio-proxy（Envoy）通过该地址调取XDS接口，获取服务信息。除此之外，static_resources中提供zipkin服务的地址，zipkin是用于服务分布式跟踪。
综上可知Envoy启动时，pilot-agent进程生成Envoy启动所需的配置文件，Envoy基于配置文件中携带的pilot地址信息动态获取服务信息，并且基于pilot提供的XDS接口，动态获取服务的listener，cluster，endpoint和route信息。
