# Manage cluster peering connections on Kubernetes
This usage topic describes how to manage cluster peering connections on Kubernetes deployments.
After you establish a cluster peering connection, you can get a list of all active peering connections, read a specific peering connection's information, and delete peering connections.
For general guidance for managing cluster peering connections, refer to [Manage L7 traffic with cluster peering](/consul/docs/connect/cluster-peering/usage/peering-traffic-management).
## Reset a peering connection
To reset the cluster peering connection, you need to generate a new peering token from the cluster where you created the `PeeringAcceptor` CRD. The only way to create or set a new peering token is to manually adjust the value of the annotation `consul.hashicorp.com/peering-version`. Creating a new token causes the previous token to expire.
1. In the `PeeringAcceptor` CRD, add the annotation `consul.hashicorp.com/peering-version`. If the annotation already exists, update its value to a higher version.
<CodeBlockConfig filename="acceptor.yml" highlight="6" hideClipboard>
```yaml
apiVersion: consul.hashicorp.com/v1alpha1
kind: PeeringAcceptor
metadata:
name: cluster-02
annotations:
consul.hashicorp.com/peering-version: "1" ## The peering version you want to set, must be in quotes
spec:
peer:
secret:
name: "peering-token"
key: "data"
backend: "kubernetes"
```
</CodeBlockConfig>
1. After updating `PeeringAcceptor`, repeat all of the steps to [establish a new peering connection](/consul/docs/k8s/connect/cluster-peering/usage/establish-peering).
## List all peering connections
In Consul on Kubernetes deployments, you can list all active peering connections in a cluster using the Consul CLI.
1. If necessary, [configure your CLI to interact with the Consul cluster](/consul/tutorials/get-started-kubernetes/kubernetes-gs-deploy#configure-your-cli-to-interact-with-consul-cluster).
1. Run the [`consul peering list` CLI command](/consul/commands/peering/list).
```shell-session
$ consul peering list
Name State Imported Svcs Exported Svcs Meta
cluster-02 ACTIVE 0 2 env=production
cluster-03 PENDING 0 0
```
## Read a peering connection
In Consul on Kubernetes deployments, you can get information about individual peering connections between clusters using the Consul CLI.
1. If necessary, [configure your CLI to interact with the Consul cluster](/consul/tutorials/get-started-kubernetes/kubernetes-gs-deploy#configure-your-cli-to-interact-with-consul-cluster).
1. Run the [`consul peering read` CLI command](/consul/commands/peering/read).
```shell-session
$ consul peering read -name cluster-02
Name: cluster-02
ID: 3b001063-8079-b1a6-764c-738af5a39a97
State: ACTIVE
Meta:
env=production
Peer ID: e83a315c-027e-bcb1-7c0c-a46650904a05
Peer Server Name: server.dc1.consul
Peer CA Pems: 0
Peer Server Addresses:
10.0.0.1:8300
Imported Services: 0
Exported Services: 2
Create Index: 89
Modify Index: 89
```
## Delete peering connections
To end a peering connection in Kubernetes deployments, delete both the `PeeringAcceptor` and `PeeringDialer` resources.
1. Delete the `PeeringDialer` resource from the second cluster.
```shell-session
$ kubectl --context $CLUSTER2_CONTEXT delete --filename dialer.yaml
```
1. Delete the `PeeringAcceptor` resource from the first cluster.
```shell-session
$ kubectl --context $CLUSTER1_CONTEXT delete --filename acceptor.yaml
````
To confirm that you deleted your peering connection in `cluster-01`, query the the `/health` HTTP endpoint:
1. Exec into the server pod for the first cluster.
```shell-session
$ kubectl exec -it consul-server-0 --context $CLUSTER1_CONTEXT -- /bin/sh
```
1. If you've enabled ACLs, export an ACL token to access the `/health` HTP endpoint for services. The bootstrap token may be used if an ACL token is not already provisioned.
```shell-session
$ export CONSUL_HTTP_TOKEN=<INSERT BOOTSTRAP ACL TOKEN>
```
1. Query the the `/health` HTTP endpoint. Peered services with deleted connections should no longe appear.
```shell-session
$ curl "localhost:8500/v1/health/connect/backend?peer=cluster-02"
```
