CreateVirtualRouter
Creates a virtual router within a service mesh.
Specify a listener
for any inbound traffic that your virtual router
receives. Create a virtual router for each protocol and port that you need to route.
Virtual routers handle traffic for one or more virtual services within your mesh. After you
create your virtual router, create and associate routes for your virtual router that direct
incoming requests to different virtual nodes.
For more information about virtual routers, see Virtual routers.
