Please review the following documentation to understand how Consul works.

|
- [Consensus Protocol](/docs/architecture/consensus)
|
|
- [Gossip Protocol](/docs/architecture/gossip)
|
|
- [Network Coordinates](/docs/architecture/coordinates)
|
|
- [Sessions](/docs/security/acl/auth-methods/oidc)
|
|
- [Anti-Entropy](/docs/architecture/anti-entropy)
|
|
- [Security Model](/docs/security)
