 description: |-
   OpenShift has an option to set the rate limit for Routes [1] when creating new Routes.
-  All routes outside the openshift namespaces and the kube namespaces should use the
-  rate-limiting annotations.
+  All routes outside the excluded namespaces (as defined by the variable
+  <tt>ocp4-var-routes-excluded-namespaces-regex</tt>) should use the rate-limiting annotations.

 rationale: |-
   The usage of rate limit for Routes provides basic protection against distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks.
