### WAN federation
WAN federation refers to designating a _primary datacenter_ that contains authoritative information about all datacenters, including service mesh configurations and access control list (ACL) resources.
WAN federation is an approach for connecting multiple Consul datacenters. It requires you to designate a _primary datacenter_ that contains authoritative information about all datacenters, including service mesh configurations and access control list (ACL) resources.
In this model, when a client agent requests a resource in a remote secondary datacenter, a local Consul server forwards the RPC request to a remote Consul server that has access to the resource. A remote server sends the results to the local server. If the remote datacenter is unavailable, its resources are also unavailable. By default, WAN-federated servers send cross-datacenter requests over TCP on port `8300`.

### Peering clusters (beta)
### Cluster peering (beta)
You can create peering connections between two or more independent clusters so that services deployed to different datacenters or admin partitions can communicate. An [admin partition](/docs/enterprise/admin-partitions) is a feature in Consul Enterprise that enables you to define isolated network regions that use the same Consul servers. In the cluster peering model, you create a token in one of the datacenters or partitions and configure another datacenter or partition to present the token to establish the connection.
