+# Configuration Samples
+
+## Use query parameter `apikey` for rate-limiting
+```yaml
+limit_by_param: apikey
+limit_keys:
+- key: 9a342114-ba8a-11ec-b1bf-00163e1250b5
+  query_per_second: 10
+- key: a6a6d7f2-ba8a-11ec-bec2-00163e1250b5
+  query_per_minute: 100
+```
+
+## Use HTTP header parameter `x-ca-key` for rate-limiting
+```yaml
+limit_by_header: x-ca-key
+limit_keys:
+- key: 102234
+  query_per_second: 10
+- key: 308239
+  query_per_hour: 10
+```
+
+## Enable rate-limiting for specific routes or domains
+```yaml
+# Use _rules_ field for fine-grained rule configurations
+_rules_:
+# Rule 1: Match by route name
+- _match_route_:
+  - route-a
+  - route-b
+  limit_by_header: x-ca-key
+  limit_keys:
+  - key: 102234
+    query_per_second: 10
+# Rule 2: Match by domain
+- _match_domain_:
+  - "*.example.com"
+  - test.com
+  limit_by_header: x-ca-key
+  limit_keys:
+  - key: 102234
+    query_per_second: 100
+```
+In the rule sample of `_match_route_`, `route-a` and `route-b` are the route names provided when creating a new gateway route. When the current route names matches the configuration, the rule following shall be applied.
+In the rule sample of `_match_domain_`, `*.example.com` and `test.com` are the domain names used for request matching. When the current domain name matches the configuration, the rule following shall be applied.
+All rules shall be checked following the order of items in the `_rules_` field，The first matched rule will be applied. All remained will be ignored.
