-TCP is the protocol for many popular applications and services, such as LDAP, 
MySQL, and RTMP. UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is the protocol for many popular 
non-transactional applications, such as DNS, syslog, and RADIUS.
+A stream proxy operates at the transport layer, handling stream-oriented 
traffic based on TCP and UDP protocols. TCP is used for many applications and 
services, such as LDAP, MySQL, and RTMP. UDP is used for many popular 
non-transactional applications, such as DNS, syslog, and RADIUS.
 
-APISIX can dynamically load balancing TCP/UDP proxy. In Nginx world, we call 
TCP/UDP proxy to stream proxy, we followed this statement.
+APISIX can serve as a stream proxy, in addition to being an application layer 
proxy.
 
 ## How to enable stream proxy?
 
-Setting the `stream_proxy` option in `conf/config.yaml`, specify a list of 
addresses that require dynamic proxy.
-By default, no stream proxy is enabled.
+By default, stream proxy is disabled.
+
+To enable the option, add the `apisix.stream_proxy` option in 
`conf/config.yaml` and specify a list of addresses which APISIX should act as a 
stream proxy and listen for incoming requests.
 
 ```yaml
 apisix:
-  stream_proxy: # TCP/UDP proxy
-    tcp: # TCP proxy address list
-      - 9100
+  stream_proxy:
+    tcp:
+      - 9100 # listen on 9100 ports of all network interfaces for TCP requests
       - "127.0.0.1:9101"
-    udp: # UDP proxy address list
-      - 9200
+    udp:
+      - 9200 # listen on 9200 ports of all network interfaces for UDP requests
       - "127.0.0.1:9211"

-## How to set route?
+If `apisix.stream_proxy` is undefined in `conf/config.yaml`, you will 
encounter an error similar to the following and not be able to add a stream 
route:
 
-Here is a mini example:
+```
+{"error_msg":"stream mode is disabled, can not add stream routes"}
+```
+
+## How to set a route?
+
+You can create a stream route using the Admin API `/stream_routes` endpoint. 
For example:
 
 ```shell
 curl http://127.0.0.1:9180/apisix/admin/stream_routes/1 -H 'X-API-KEY: 
edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '

-    "remote_addr": "127.0.0.1",
+    "remote_addr": "192.168.5.3",
     "upstream": {
         "nodes": {
-            "127.0.0.1:1995": 1
+            "192.168.4.10:1995": 1
         },
         "type": "roundrobin"
     }
 }'
 ```
 
-It means APISIX will proxy the request to `127.0.0.1:1995` which the client 
remote address is `127.0.0.1`.
+With this configuration, APISIX would only forward the request to the upstream 
service at `192.168.4.10:1995` if and only if the request is sent from 
`192.168.5.3`. See the next section to learn more about filtering options.
 
-For more use cases, please take a look at [test 
case](https://github.com/apache/apisix/blob/master/t/stream-node/sanity.t).
+More examples can be found in [test 
cases](https://github.com/apache/apisix/blob/master/t/stream-node/sanity.t).
 
-## More route match options
+## More stream route filtering options
 
-And we can add more options to match a route. Currently stream route 
configuration supports 3 fields for filtering:
+Currently there are three attributes in stream routes that can be used for 
filtering requests:
 
-- server_addr: The address of the APISIX server that accepts the L4 stream 
connection.
-- server_port: The port of the APISIX server that accepts the L4 stream 
connection.
-- remote_addr: The address of client from which the request has been made.
