* <a name="_bind"></a><a href="#_bind">`-bind`</a> - The address that should be bound to
for internal cluster communications.
This is an IP address that should be reachable by all other nodes in the cluster.
By default, this is "0.0.0.0", meaning Consul will use all IPv4 addresses on the local machine. If you specify "[::]", Consul will use the first available public IPv6 address, otherwise the first available private IPv4 address is used.
By default, this is "0.0.0.0", meaning Consul will bind to all addresses on
the local machine and will [advertise](/docs/agent/options.html#_advertise)
the first available private IPv4 address to the rest of the cluster. If there
are multiple private IPv4 addresses available, Consul will exit with an error
at startup. If you specify "[::]", Consul will
[advertise](/docs/agent/options.html#_advertise) the first available public
IPv6 address. If there are multiple public IPv6 addresses available, Consul
will exit with an error at startup.
Consul uses both TCP and UDP and the same port for both. If you
have any firewalls, be sure to allow both protocols.
