consul v1.7.3 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-05-05 // almost 4 years ago

  • 👌 IMPROVEMENTS:

    • acl: (Consul Enterprise only) - Disable the ACL.Bootstrap RPC endpoints when managed service provider tokens are in use. [GH-7614]
    • acl: (Consul Enterprise only) - Consul agents will now use the first managed service provider token for the agents token when any are present.
    • acl: Added a v1/acl/policy/name/:name HTTP endpoint to read a policy by name. [GH-6615]
    • acl: Added JSON format output to all of the ACL CLI commands. [GH-7141]
    • ⚡️ agent/xds: Update mesh gateway to use the service resolver connect timeout when configured [GH-6370]
    • 🌲 cli: Log "newer version available" message at INFO level [GH-7457]
    • 🔧 config: Consul Enterprise specific configuration are now parseable in OSS but will emit warnings about them not being used. [GH-7714
    • network areas: (Consul Enterprise only) - Network areas are using memberlist with TCP and for every message a new connection was established. Now the connections multiplexed with yamux, which means that way fewer connections are created.
    • network segments: (Consul Enterprise only) - The segment configuration is no longer stored in serf node tags. There is now an RPC endpoint for the same information, which means that the number of network segment is no longer limited by node meta tag size.
    • snapshot agent: (Consul Enterprise only) - Azure has different environments, of which it was only possible to use the public one so far. A new flag was added so that every other environment can be used as well, like Azure China.

    🛠 BUGFIXES:

    • agent: don't let left nodes hold onto their node-id [GH-7775]

    • connect: Fix panic when validating a service-router config entry with no destination [GH-7783]

    • snapshot agent (Consul Enterprise only): Ensure snapshots persisted with the local backend are fsync safe and also only writes to the requested file on success.
