Consul comes with support for beautiful, functional web UIs out of the box.
|
|
|
|
|
UIs can be used for viewing all services and nodes, for viewing all health
|
|
|
|
|
checks and their current status, and for reading and setting key/value data.
|
|
|
|
|
The UIs automatically supports multi-datacenter.

$ consul agent -ui

...
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

The UI is available at the `/ui` path on the same port as the HTTP API.
|
|
|
|
|
By default this is `http://localhost:8500/ui`.
