| - The **gateway-client** acts as a WireGuard client, initiating the connection to the remote cluster. | ||
| - The **gateway-server** acts as a WireGuard server, accepting incoming connections from remote clients. The gateway-server must expose itself using a Kubernetes Service, which can be of type LoadBalancer, NodePort, or ClusterIP, depending on the cluster's networking setup and requirements. | ||

Suggested change
| The role of the gateway, either _client_ or _server_, can be dynamically configured before starting the peering. | |
| In other words, this role does not depend whether the cluster is a Liqo resource _provider_ or _consumer_, although the default choice is to have the cluster provider acting as a gateway server, and the consumer acting as gateway client. |

Description
This PR aims to add documentation concerning advanced concepts of the liqo's network fabric.
Contributors
Updates
Documentation
The main contribution concerns the addition of a section on Liqo's architecture, specifically its network architecture.
The following pages have been added to Architecture / Liqo's network:
Sphinx
The Sphinx installation system has been changed: currently, the packages needed to compile the documentation are installed without a Python virtual environment, but this is no longer supported by default in new versions of PIP, so it has been necessary to use virtual environments in the Makefile.
Furthermore, to make local execution lighter and simpler, Nginx (via Docker) has been replaced with the native Python “http” module, which allows a static http server to be exposed.
Finally, the README has been modified to suggest that users use the autoserve command, which is more useful during development than serve thanks to its autoreload feature.
