# Consul API Gateway 0.2.0
|
||
|
||
## Release Highlights
|
||
|
||
- **Cross Namespace Reference Policies:** Reference Policies are security
|
||
mechanism in the Kubernetes Gateway API that allows users to better control
|
||
how traffic is routed between Kubernetes namespaces. With the previous
|
||
releases of Consul API Gateway, users could route requests from the API
|
||
Gateway across various namespaces without providing any sort of explicit
|
||
permissions. While this meant that any service connected to the service mesh
|
||
was reachable, it didn’t allow users to set the more granular restrictions or
|
||
permissions that they may expect.
|
||
|
||
This version of API Gateway implements Cross Namespace Reference Policies
|
||
and requires them when routes are in a different namespace than the services
|
||
(as specified by the `backendRefs`) they are routing traffic to.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Upgrading
|
||
|
||
~> **Note**: If your current deployment has routes and and services that cross namespaces, those routes will not be applied to their gateways until cross namespace reference policies are created for them.
|
||
|
||
For detailed information on upgrading, including how to create the required reference policies, please refer to the [upgrade details page](/docs/api-gateway/upgrade-specific-versions)
