// Configuration for the Random Subsetting Load Balancing Policy
//
// This policy selects a subset of endpoints and passes them to the child LB policy.
// It maintains 2 important properties:
// 1. The policy tries to distribute connections among servers as equally as possible. The higher
// ``(N_clients*subset_size)/N_servers`` ratio is, the closer the resulting server connection
// distribution is to uniform.
// 2. The policy minimizes the amount of connection churn generated during server scale-ups by
// using rendezvous hashing
//
// See the :ref:`load balancing architecture
// overview<arch_overview_load_balancing_types>` for more information.

Review comment (suggestion):
I think we'll need a `[#not-implemented-hide:]` label here to hide this from Envoy's documentation generator, since this policy is not actually implemented in Envoy yet.

Code after:
option java_package = "io.envoyproxy.envoy.extensions.load_balancing_policies.random_subsetting.v3";
option java_outer_classname = "RandomSubsettingProto";
option java_multiple_files = true;
option go_package = "github.com/envoyproxy/go-control-plane/envoy/extensions/load_balancing_policies/random_subsetting/v3;random_subsettingv3";
