Mesh gateways are required for you to route service mesh traffic between different Consul clusters. Clusters can reside in different clouds or runtime environments where general interconnectivity between all services in all clusters is not feasible. Mesh gateways are required for you to route service mesh traffic between peered Consul clusters. Clusters can reside in different clouds or runtime environments where general interconnectivity between all services in all clusters is not feasible.
At a minimum, a peered cluster exporting a service must have a mesh gateway registered. At a minimum, a peered cluster exporting a service must have a mesh gateway registered.
