How to access externally to consul UI

问题

How can I access to consul UI externally?

I want to access consul UI writing

<ANY_MASTER_OR_SLAVE_NODE_IP>:8500

I have try doing a ssh tunnel to acces: ssh -N -f -L 8500:localhost:8500 root@172.16.8.194

Then if I access http://localhost:8500 It works, but it is not what I want. I need to access externally, without ssh tunnel.

My config.json file is the next:

{
"bind_addr":"172.16.8.216",
"server": false,
"datacenter": "nyc2",
"data_dir": "/var/consul",
"ui_dir": "/home/ikerlan/dist",
"log_level": "INFO",
"enable_syslog": true,
"start_join": ["172.16.8.211","172.16.8.212","172.16.8.213"]
}

Any help? Thanks

Add

{
  "client_addr": "0.0.0.0"
}

to your configuration or add the option -client 0.0.0.0 to the command line of consul to make your Web UI accessible from the outside (see the docs for more information).

Please note that this will also make your Consul REST API accessible from the outside. Depending on your environment you might want to activate Consul's ACLs to restrict access.

You can use socat in this case.

socat -d -d TCP-L:8500,bind=172.16.93.128,fork TCP:localhost:8500 &

where 172.16.93.12 is my IP.

I don't have hands-on experience with Consul yet, but here are a few tips:

Run sudo netstat -peanut | grep :8500 and check if Consul is bound to 0.0.0.0 or an explicit ip. Should check docs if this is configurable.
On each node install Squid, Nginx or any other software which can act as a HTTP proxy

I run it as a docker image, i gave

docker pull consul

docker run -p 8500:8500 consul

and i am able to access the consul ui at http://<hostname>:8500/ui

Finally I find the solution. Add to the config file with the bind addr that is the IP of the machine, and the client_addr that is the hosts he listen to. So I use 0.0.0.0 to listen to all the IPs.

"bind_addr":"<machine-ip>",
"client_addr":"0.0.0.0",
