+## Auto-join with Network Segments <EnterpriseAlert inline />
+
+In order to use cloud auto-join with [Network Segments](/docs/enterprise/network-segments),
+you must reconfigure the Consul agent's Serf LAN port to match that of the
+segment you wish to join.
+
+For example, given the following segment configuration on the server agents:
+
+```hcl
+# server-config.hcl
+segments = [
+  {
+    name = "alpha"
+    bind = "{{GetPrivateIP}}"
+    advertise = "{{GetPrivateIP}}"
+    port = 8303
+  },
+  {
+    name = "beta"
+    bind = "{{GetPrivateIP}}"
+    advertise = "{{GetPrivateIP}}"
+    port = 8304
+  }
+]
+```
+
+A Consul client agent wishing to join the "alpha" segment would need to be configured
+to use port `8303` as its Serf LAN port prior to attempting to join the cluster.
+
+<Tabs>

+
+The following example configuration overrides the default Serf LAN port using the
+[`ports.serf_lan`](/docs/agent/options#serf_lan_port) configuration option.
+
+```hcl
+# client-config.hcl
+ports {
+  serf_lan = 8303

 for different providers.
