@ -99,9 +99,16 @@ Precedence cannot be manually overridden today. This is a feature that will
be added in a later version of Consul.
In the case the two precedence values match, Consul will evaluate
intentions based on lexographical ordering of the destination name. For
example, an intention with destination "bravo" will be applied before
"charlie" if the precedence number matches.
intentions based on lexographical ordering of the destination then
source name. In practice, this is a moot point since authorizing a connection
has an exact source and destination value so its impossible for two
valid non-wildcard intentions to match.
The numbers in the table above are not stable. Their ordering will remain
fixed but the actual number values may change in the future.
The numbers are non-contiguous because there are
some unused values in the middle in preparation for a future version of
Consul supporting namespaces.
