page_title: Legacy ACL System
description: >-
Consul provides an optional Access Control List (ACL) system which can be used
to control access to data and APIs. The ACL system is a Capability-based
system that relies on tokens which can have fine grained rules applied to
them. It is very similar to AWS IAM in many ways.
Consul's original ACL system was updated in version 1.4.0 and the legacy system is no longer supported as of 1.11.0. Learn how Consul's original ACLs worked and how it differs from current ACLs.
