page_title: Service Router configuration reference
description: >-
Service router configuration entries are L7 traffic management tools for redirecting requests for a service to a particular instance or set of instances. Learn how to write `service-router` config entries in HCL or YAML with a specification reference, configuration model, a complete example, and example code by use case.

# Service router configuration reference
This page provides reference information for service router configuration entries. Service routers use L7 network information to redirect a traffic request for a service to one or more specific service instances.
Refer to [L7 traffic management overview](/consul/docs/connect/manage-traffic) for additional information.
## Configuration model
The following list outlines field hierarchy, language-specific data types, and requirements in this configuration entry. Click on a property name to view additional details, including default values.

## Specification
This section provides details about the fields you can configure in the service router configuration entry.
<Tabs>
<Tab heading="HCL" group="hcl">
### `Kind`
Specifies the type of configuration entry to implement.
#### Values
- Default: none
- This field is required.
- Data type: String value that must be set to `service-router`.
### `Name`
Specifies a name for the configuration entry. The name is metadata that you can use to reference the configuration entry when performing Consul operations with the [`consul config` command](/consul/commands/config).
#### Values
- Default: None
- Data type: String
### `Namespace` <EnterpriseAlert inline />
Specifies the namespace to apply the configuration entry to. Refer to [Namespaces](/consul/docs/enterprise/namespaces) for additional information about Consul namespaces.
#### Values
- Default: None
- Data type: String

#### Values
- Default: None
- Data type: Map of one or more key-value pairs
- `<KEY>`: String
- `<VALUE>`: String or integer
### `Routes`
Defines the possible routes for L7 requests. Consul evaluates traffic against the list of routes in their order of appearance in the configuration entry. When multiple routes satisfy the request, Consul uses the first route that matches. Traffic that fails to match any of the provided routes is routed to the default service.
#### Values
- Default: None
- Data type: List that can contain the following parameters:
- [`Match`](#routes-match)
- [`Destination`](#routes-destination)
### `Routes[].Match`
Describes a set of criteria that Consul compares incoming L7 traffic with. If empty or omitted, it acts as a catch-all.
#### Values
- Default: None
- Data type: Map that contains the [`Routes[].Match{}.HTTP`](#routes-match-http) parameter.
### `Routes[].Match{}.HTTP`
Specifies a set of HTTP criteria used to evaluate incoming L7 traffic for matches.
When matching on the HTTP request path, you can only match on one path at a time. Do not configure `PathExact`, `PathPrefix`, and `PathRegex` in a single HTTP map.
#### Values
- Default: None
- Data type: Map that can contain the following parameters:
- [`PathExact`](#routes-match-http-pathexact)

- [`Methods`](#routes-match-http-methods)
- [`Header`](#routes-match-http-header)
- [`QueryParam`](#routes-match-http-queryparam)
### `Routes[].Match{}.HTTP{}.PathExact`
Specifies the exact path to match on the HTTP request path. When using this field, do not configure `PathPrefix` or `PathRegex` in the same HTTP map.
#### Values
- Default: None
- Data type: String
### `Routes[].Match{}.HTTP{}.PathPrefix`
Specifies the path prefix to match on the HTTP request path. When using this field, do not configure `PathExact` or `PathRegex` in the same HTTP map.
#### Values
- Default: None
- Data type: String
### `Routes[].Match{}.HTTP{}.CaseInsensitive`
Specifies the path prefix to match on the HTTP request path must be case insensitive or not.
#### Values
- Default: `false`
- Data type: Boolean
### `Routes[].Match{}.HTTP{}.PathRegex`
Specifies a regular expression to match on the HTTP request path. When using this field, do not configure `PathExact` or `PathPrefix` in the same HTTP map. The syntax for the regular expression field is proxy-specific. When [using Envoy](/consul/docs/connect/proxies/envoy), refer to [the documentation for Envoy v1.11.2 or newer](https://github.com/google/re2/wiki/Syntax) or [the documentation for Envoy v1.11.1 or older](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/regex/ecmascript), depending on the version of Envoy you use.
#### Values
- Default: None
- Data type: String
### `Routes[].Match{}.HTTP{}.Methods`
Specifies HTTP methods that the match applies to. If not specified, the request matches on all HTTP methods. If provided, the name must be a valid method formatted as a string.
String values must be a valid [HTTP request method](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Methods).

### `Routes[].Destination{}.RetryOnStatusCodes`
Specifies a list of integers for [HTTP response status codes](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status) that trigger a retry request. Configure this field and other retry fields in `Destination` to configure the logic for retry attempts. For examples, refer to the [retry logic example configurations](#retry-logic)
#### Values
- Default: None
- Data type: List of integers
### `Routes[].Destination{}.RequestHeaders`
Specifies a set of HTTP-specific header modification rules applied to requests routed with the service router. You cannot configure request headers if the listener protocol is set to `tcp`.
#### Values
- Default: None
- Values: Object containing one or more fields that define header modification rules:
- `Add`: Map of one or more key-value pairs.
- `Set`: Map of one or more key-value pairs.
- `Remove`: Map of one or more key-value pairs.
The following table describes how to configure values for request headers:
| Rule | Description | Type |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `Add` | Defines a set of key-value pairs to add to the header. Use header names as the keys. Header names are not case-sensitive. If header values with the same name already exist, the value is appended and Consul applies both headers. You can [use variable placeholders](#use-variable-placeholders). | map of strings |
| `Set` | Defines a set of key-value pairs to add to the request header or to replace existing header values with. Use header names as the keys. Header names are not case-sensitive. If header values with the same names already exist, Consul replaces the header values. You can [use variable placeholders](#use-variable-placeholders). | map of strings |
| `Remove` | Defines a list of headers to remove. Consul removes only headers containing exact matches. Header names are not case-sensitive. | list of strings |
#### Use variable placeholders
For `Add` and `Set`, if the service is configured to use Envoy as the proxy, the value may contain variables to interpolate dynamic metadata into the value. For example, using the variable `%DOWNSTREAM_REMOTE_ADDRESS%` in your configuration entry allows you to pass a value that is generated when the routing occurs.

### Retry logic
The following example configures Consul so that when a request for the `orders` service passes through the service mesh, Consul routes the traffic to the `products` service or the `procurement` service based on the HTTP path that originated the request:
- If it originates from the `/coffees` path, the request routes to the `products` service, times out after 15 seconds, and attempts 5 retries.
- If it originates from the `/orders` path, the request routes to the `procurement` services, times out after 10 seconds, and attempts 3 retries.
