FEATURE PREVIEW: Catalog v2

This release provides the ability to preview Consul's v2 Catalog and Resource API if enabled. The new model supports
multi-port application deployments with only a single Envoy proxy. Note that the v1 and v2 catalogs are not cross
compatible, and not all Consul features are available within this v2 feature preview. See the v2 Catalog and Resource
API documentation for more information. The v2 Catalog and
Resources API should be considered a feature preview within this release and should not be used in production
environments.

Limitations

• The v2 catalog API feature preview does not support connections with client agents. As a result, it is only available for Kubernetes deployments, which use Consul dataplanes instead of client agents.
• The v1 and v2 catalog APIs cannot run concurrently.
• The Consul UI does not support multi-port services or the v2 catalog API in this release.
• HCP Consul does not support multi-port services or the v2 catalog API in this release.

• dataplane: Allow getting bootstrap parameters when using V2 APIs [GH-18504]
• gateway: (Enterprise only) Add JWT authentication and authorization to APIGateway Listeners and HTTPRoutes.
• mesh: (Enterprise only) Adds rate limiting config to service-defaults [GH-18583]
• xds: Add a built-in Envoy extension that appends OpenTelemetry Access Logging (otel-access-logging) to the HTTP Connection Manager filter. [GH-18336]
• xds: Add support for patching outbound listeners to the built-in Envoy External Authorization extension. [GH-18336]

IMPROVEMENTS:

• api: added Token field to ServiceRegisterOpts type in Agent API [GH-18983]
• ca: Vault CA provider config no longer requires root_pki_path for secondary datacenters [GH-17831]
• cli: Added -templated-policy, -templated-policy-file, -replace-templated-policy, -append-templated-policy, -replace-templated-policy-file, -append-templated-policy-file and -var flags for creating or updating tokens/roles. [GH-18708]

BUG FIXES:

• api: add custom marshal/unmarshal for ServiceResolverConfigEntry.RequestTimeout so config entries that set this field can be read using the API. [GH-19031]

When this bug occurs, upstreams would use the protocol from a service-default entry in the default namespace / partition, rather than their own namespace / partition.
• connect: Fix bug where uncleanly closed xDS connections would influence connection balancing for too long and prevent envoy instances from starting. Two new configuration fields
  performance.grpc_keepalive_timeout and performance.grpc_keepalive_interval now exist to allow for configuration on how often these dead connections will be cleaned up. [GH-19339]

v1.16.5

Compare Source

KNOWN ISSUES:

• connect: Consul versions 1.17.2 and 1.16.5 perform excessively strict TLS SAN verification on terminating gateways, which prevents connections outside of the mesh to upstream services. Terminating gateway users are advised to avoid deploying these Consul versions. A fix will be present in a future release of Consul 1.17.3 and 1.16.6 [GH-20360].

SECURITY:

• metrics: modify consul.client.rpc metric to exclude internal retries for consistency with consul.client.rpc.exceeded and consul.client.rpc.failed [GH-19721]

BUG FIXES:
