# Service Mesh (Connect)
- call out: envoy/proxy is the data plane, Consul is the control plane
- [Configuration Entries](./config-entries)
- [xDS Server] - a gRPC service that implements [xDS] and handles requests from an [envoy proxy].
- [agent/proxycfg]
- [Certificate Authority](./ca) for issuing TLS certs for services and client agents
- command/connect/envoy - bootstrapping and running envoy
- command/connect/proxy - built-in proxy that is dev-only and not supported
for production.
- `connect/` - "Native" service mesh
