* `statsite_addr` - Equivalent to the `-statsite` command-line flag. * `statsite_addr` - Equivalent to the `-statsite` command-line flag.
* `verify_incoming` - If set to True, Consul requires that all incoming
connections make use of TLS, and that the client provides a certificate signed
by the Certificate Authority from the `ca_file`. By default, this is false, and
Consul will not enforce the use of TLS or verify a client's authenticity. This
only applies to Consul servers, since a client never has an incoming connection.
* `verify_outgoing` - If set to True, Consul requires that all outgoing connections
make use of TLS, and that the server provide a certificate that is signed by
the Certificate Authority from the `ca_file`. By default, this is false, and Consul
will not make use of TLS for outgoing connections. This applies to clients and servers,
as both will make outgoing connections.
* `ca_file` - This provides a the file path to a PEM encoded certificate authority.
The certificate authority is used to check the authenticity of client and server
connections with the appropriate `verify_incoming` or `verify_outgoing` flags.
* `cert_file` - This provides a the file path to a PEM encoded certificate.
The certificate is provided to clients or servers to verify the agents authenticity.
Must be provided along with the `key_file`.
* `key_file` - This provides a the file path to a PEM encoded private key.
The key is used with the certificate to verify the agents authenticity.
Must be provided along with the `cert_file`.
