IMPROVEMENTS:
- mesh: parse the proxy-defaults protocol when write the config-entry to avoid parsing it when compiling the discovery chain. [GH-19829]
- wan-federation: use a hash to diff config entries when replicating in the secondary DC to avoid unnecessary writes.. [GH-19795]
- cli: Adds cli support for checking TCP connection for ports. If -ports flag is not given, it will check for
default ports of consul listed here - https://developer.hashicorp.com/consul/docs/install/ports [GH-18329] - cloud: push additional server TLS metadata to HCP [GH-19682]
- connect: Default
stats_flush_intervalto 60 seconds when using the Consul Telemetry Collector, unless custom stats sink are present or an explicit flush interval is configured. [GH-19663] - metrics: increment consul.client.rpc.failed if RPC fails because no servers are accessible [GH-19721]
- 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:
- CLI: fix a panic when deleting a non existing policy by name. [GH-19679]
- connect: Solves an issue where two upstream services with the same name in different namespaces were not getting routed to correctly by API Gateways. [GH-19860]
- federation: (Enterprise Only) Fixed an issue where namespace reconciliation could result into the secondary having dangling instances of namespaces marked for deletion
- ui: only show hcp link if url is present [GH-19443]
- wan-federation: Fix a bug where servers wan-federated through mesh-gateways could crash due to overlapping LAN IP addresses. [GH-19503]
- xds: Add configurable
xds_fetch_timeout_msoption to proxy registrations that allows users to prevent endpoints from dropping when they have proxies with a large number of upstreams. [GH-19871] - xds: ensure child resources are re-sent to Envoy when the parent is updated even if the child already has pending updates. [GH-19866]
