# Service Defaults
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `service-defaults` config entry kind controls default global values for a
|
||
|
|
service, such as its protocol.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Sample Config Entries
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Set the default protocol for a service to HTTP:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```hcl
|
||
|
|
Kind = "service-defaults"
|
||
|
|
Name = "web"
|
||
|
|
Protocol = "http"
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Available Fields
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `Kind` - Must be set to `service-defaults`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `Name` `(string: <required>)` - Set to the name of the service being configured.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `Protocol` `(string: "tcp")` - Sets the protocol of the service. This is used
|
||
|
|
by Connect proxies for things like observability features and to unlock usage
|
||
|
|
of the [`service-splitter`
|
||
|
|
<sup>(beta)</sup>](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-splitter.html) and
|
||
|
|
[`service-router`
|
||
|
|
<sup>(beta)</sup>](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-router.html) config
|
||
|
|
entries for a service.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## ACLs
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Configuration entries may be protected by
|
||
|
|
[ACLs](https://learn.hashicorp.com/consul/security-networking/production-acls).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Reading a `service-defaults` config entry requires `service:read` on itself.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Creating, updating, or deleting a `service-defaults` config entry requires
|
||
|
|
`service:write` on itself.
