# Consul Guides
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This section provides various guides for common actions. Due to the complex nature
|
|
|
|
of Consul, some of these procedures can be complex, so our goal is to provide
|
|
|
|
guidance do doing them safely.
|
|
|

|
The following guides are available:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* [Bootstrapping](/docs/guides/bootstrapping.html) - This guide covers bootstrapping a new
|
|
