## Consul 1.16.x
#### Known issues
### Known issues
Service mesh in Consul versions 1.16.0 and 1.16.1 may have issues when a snapshot restore is performed and the servers are hosting xDS streams.
When this bug triggers, it causes Envoy to incorrectly populate upstream endpoints. To prevent this issue, service mesh users who run agent-less workloads should upgrade Consul to v1.16.2 or later.
#### Vault Enterprise as CA ((#vault-enterprise-as-ca-1-16))
Using Vault as CA with Consul version 1.16.2 will fail to initialize the CA if [`namespace`](/consul/docs/connect/ca/vault#namespace) is set
but [`intermediate_pki_namespace`](/consul/docs/connect/ca/vault#intermediatepkinamespace) or [`root_pki_namespace`](/consul/docs/connect/ca/vault#rootpkinamespace)
are empty. This is a bug which will be fixed in a future version.
To work around this issue, users must explicitly set [`intermediate_pki_namespace`](/consul/docs/connect/ca/vault#intermediatepkinamespace) and
[`root_pki_namespace`](/consul/docs/connect/ca/vault#rootpkinamespace) to the same value as [`namespace`](/consul/docs/connect/ca/vault#namespace).
Set your configuration by calling [set-config](/consul/commands/connect/ca#set-config) then use [get-config](/consul/commands/connect/ca#get-config) to check.
