     6    **Improved** request JWT authentication to use the upstream Envoy JWT filter
     7    instead of the custom Istio Proxy filter. Because the new upstream JWT filter
     8    capabilities are needed, the feature is gated for the proxies that support
     9    them. Note that a custom Envoy or Wasm filter that used `istio_authn` dynamic
    10    metadata key  needs to be updated to use `envoy.filters.http.jwt_authn`
    11    dynamic metadata key.
