- `kube-proxy` is a network proxy that runs on each node in the cluster.
+ [kube-proxy](/docs/reference/command-line-tools-reference/kube-proxy/) is a
+network proxy that runs on each node in your cluster, implementing part of
+the Kubernetes {{< glossary_tooltip term_id="service">}} concept.
 
-It enables the Kubernetes service abstraction by maintaining network rules on
-the host and performing connection forwarding.

-`kube-proxy` is responsible for request forwarding. `kube-proxy` allows TCP and UDP stream forwarding or round robin TCP and UDP forwarding across a set of backend functions.
+kube-proxy maintains network rules on nodes. These network rules allow
+network communication to your Pods from network sessions inside or outside
+of your cluster.
 
+kube-proxy uses the operating system packet filtering layer if there is one
+and it's available. Otherwise, kube-proxy forwards the traffic itself.
