local port to listen for those connections. When transparent proxy is enabled,
this annotation is optional. This annotation can be either _labeled_ or _unlabeled_. We recommend the labeled format because it has a more consistent syntax and can be used to reference cluster peers as upstreams.
- **Labeled**:
<Note>
If the upstream annotation contains a dot (for example, `static-server.svc:8080`), you may not be able to reference the auto-generated environment variables (`<NAME>_CONNECT_SERVICE_HOST` and `<NAME>_CONNECT_SERVICE_PORT`) since the environment variables will also contain the dot.

You can verify access to the static text server using `kubectl exec`.
Because transparent proxy is enabled by default,
use Kubernetes DNS to connect to your desired upstream.
