## Overview
You can set limits on the rate of read and write requests from source IP addresses to specific resources, which mitigates the risks to Consul servers when consul clients send excessive requests to a specific resource type. Before configuring traffic rate limits, you should complete the initialization process to understand normal traffic loads in your network. Refer to [Initialize rate limit settings](/consul/docs/agent/limits/init-rate-limits) for additional information.

-- **Sameness groups:** Sameness groups are a user-defined set of partitions that Consul uses to identify services in different administrative partitions with the same name as being the same services. You can use sameness groups to create a blanket failover policy for deployments with cluster peering connections. Refer to the [Sameness groups overview](/consul/docs/connect/cluster-peering/usage/create-sameness-groups) for more information.

- **Permissive mTLS:** You can enable the `permissive` mTLS mode to enable sidecar proxies to accept both mTLS and non-mTLS traffic. Using this mode enables you to onboard services without downtime and without reconfiguring or redeploying your application.

-- **FIPS compliance:** Consul Enterprise now offers FIPS 140-2 compliant builds that meet the security needs of federal agencies protecting sensitive, unclassified information with approved cryptographic measures.

- **JWT Authorization with service intentions:** Consul can now authorize connections based on claims present in JSON Web Token (JWT). You can configure Consul to use one or more JWT providers, which lets you control access to services and specific HTTP paths based on the validity of JWT claims embedded in the service traffic. This ensures a uniform and low latency mechanism to validate and authorize communication based on JWT claims across all services in a diverse service-oriented architecture.
