# Consul Catalog backend
Træfik can be configured to use service discovery catalog of Consul as a backend configuration.
```toml
################################################################
# Consul Catalog configuration backend
################################################################
# Enable Consul Catalog configuration backend.
[consulCatalog]
# Consul server endpoint.
#
# Required
# Default: "127.0.0.1:8500"
#
endpoint = "127.0.0.1:8500"
# Expose Consul catalog services by default in Traefik.
#
# Optional
# Default: true
#
exposedByDefault = false
# Default domain used.
#
# Optional
#
domain = "consul.localhost"
# Prefix for Consul catalog tags.
#
# Optional
# Default: "traefik"
#
prefix = "traefik"
# Default frontEnd Rule for Consul services.
#
# The format is a Go Template with:
# - ".ServiceName", ".Domain" and ".Attributes" available
# - "getTag(name, tags, defaultValue)", "hasTag(name, tags)" and "getAttribute(name, tags, defaultValue)" functions are available
# - "getAttribute(...)" function uses prefixed tag names based on "prefix" value
#
# Optional
# Default: "Host:{{.ServiceName}}.{{.Domain}}"
#
#frontEndRule = "Host:{{.ServiceName}}.{{.Domain}}"
```
This backend will create routes matching on hostname based on the service name used in Consul.
To enable constraints see [backend-specific constraints section](/configuration/commons/#backend-specific).

### Examples
If you want that Træfik uses Consul tags correctly you need to defined them like that:
```json
traefik.enable=true
traefik.tags=api
traefik.tags=external
```
If the prefix defined in Træfik configuration is `bla`, tags need to be defined like that:
```json
bla.enable=true
bla.tags=api
bla.tags=external
```
