+ * The router is a stateless YARN component which is the entry point to the
+ * cluster. It can be deployed on multiple nodes behind a Virtual IP (VIP) with
+ * a LoadBalancer.
+ *
+ * The Router exposes the ApplicationClientProtocol (RPC and REST) to the
+ * outside world, transparently hiding the presence of ResourceManager(s), which
+ * allows users to request and update reservations, submit and kill
+ * applications, and request status on running applications.
+ *
+ * In addition, it exposes the ResourceManager Admin API.
+ *
+ * This provides a placeholder for throttling mis-behaving clients (YARN-1546)
+ * and masks the access to multiple RMs (YARN-3659).
