# Cluster Peering on Kubernetes
To establish a cluster peering connection on Kubernetes, you need to enable the feature in the Helm chart and create custom resource definitions (CRDs) for each side of the peering.
To establish a cluster peering connection on Kubernetes, you need to enable several pre-requisite values in the Helm chart and create custom resource definitions (CRDs) for each side of the peering.
The following Helm values are mandatory for cluster peering:
- [`global.tls.enabled = true`](/docs/k8s/helm#v-global-tls-enabled)
- [`meshGateway.enabled = true`](/docs/k8s/helm#v-meshgateway-enabled)
The following CRDs are used to create and manage a peering connection:
- `PeeringAcceptor`: Generates a peering token and accepts an incoming peering connection.
- `PeeringDialer`: Uses a peering token to make an outbound peering connection with the cluster that generated the token.
Peering connections, including both data-plane and control-plane traffic, will be routed over mesh gateways.
As of Consul v1.14, you can also [implement service failovers and redirects to control traffic](/consul/docs/connect/l7-traffic) between peers.

These Helm values configure the servers in each cluster so that they expose ports over a Kubernetes load balancer service. For additional configuration options, refer to [`server.exposeService`](/docs/k8s/helm#v-server-exposeservice).
When generating a peering token from one of the clusters, Consul includes a load balancer address in the token so that the peering stream goes through the load balancer in front of the servers. For additional configuration options, refer to [`global.peering.tokenGeneration`](/docs/k8s/helm#v-global-peering-tokengeneration).

1. Add the `"consul.hashicorp.com/connect-inject": "true"` annotation to your service's pods before deploying the workload so that the services in `cluster-01` can dial `backend` in `cluster-02`. To dial the upstream service from an application, configure the application so that that requests are sent to the correct DNS name as specified in [Service Virtual IP Lookups](/docs/discovery/dns#service-virtual-ip-lookups). In the following example, the annotation that allows the workload to join the mesh and the configuration provided to the workload that enables the workload to dial the upstream service using the correct DNS name is highlighted.
