# Enabling Peering Control Plane Traffic
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to [service-to-service traffic routing](/docs/connect/gateways/mesh-gateway/service-to-service-traffic-peers), mesh gateways can optionally be used to route control-plane traffic between peers.
|
||||
This includes the initial secret handshake and the bi-directional stream replicating peering data.
|
||||
In addition to [service-to-service traffic routing](/docs/connect/gateways/mesh-gateway/service-to-service-traffic-peers),
|
||||
we recommend routing control plane traffic between cluster peers through mesh gateways
|
||||
to simplfy networking requirements.
|
||||
|
||||
Control plane traffic between cluster peers includes
|
||||
the initial secret handshake and the bi-directional stream replicating peering data.
|
||||
This data is not decrypted by the mesh gateway(s).
|
||||
Instead, it is transmitted end-to-end using the accepting cluster’s auto-generated TLS certificate on the gRPC TLS port.
