The Consul agent supports encrypting all of its network traffic. The exact
method of encryption is described on the encryption internals page. There are
two separate encryption systems, one for gossip traffic and one for RPC.
Two encryption systems protect Consuls network communications. Learn how keys secure gossip between agents and how RPC with TLS certificates verifies the authenticity of servers and clients.

description: >-
Consul relies on both a lightweight gossip mechanism and an RPC system to
