# Consul Info
Command: `consul info`
The info command provides various debugging information that can be
useful to operators. Depending on if the agent is a client or server,
information about different sub-systems will be returned.
Here is an example output:
agent:
check_monitors = 0
check_ttls = 0
checks = 0
services = 0
consul:
bootstrap = true
leader = true
server = true
raft:
applied_index = 45758
commit_index = 45758
fsm_pending = 0
last_log_index = 45758
last_log_term = 3
last_snapshot_index = 45713
last_snapshot_term = 1
num_peers = 0
state = Leader
term = 3
serf-lan:
members = 1
serf-wan:
datacenters = 1
members = 1
There are currently the top-level keys for:
* agent: Provides information about the agent
* consul: Information about the consul library (client or server)
* raft: Provides info about the Raft [consensus library](/docs/internals/consensus.html)
* serf-lan: Provides info about the LAN [gossip pool](/docs/internals/gossip.html)
* serf-wan: Provides info about the WAN [gossip pool](/docs/internals/gossip.html)
## Usage
Usage: `consul info`
The command-line flags are all optional. The list of available flags are:
* `-rpc-addr` - Address to the RPC server of the agent you want to contact
to send this command. If this isn't specified, the command will contact
"127.0.0.1:8400" which is the default RPC address of a Consul agent.
