   - `https_handshake_timeout` - Configures the limit for how long the HTTPS server in both client and server agents will wait for a client to complete a TLS handshake. This should be kept conservative as it limits how many connections an unauthenticated attacker can open if `verify_incoming` is being using to authenticate clients (strongly recommended in production). Default value is `5s`.
   - `request_limits` - This object specifies configurations that limit the rate of RPC and gRPC requests on the Consul server. Limiting the rate of gRPC and RPC requests also limits HTTP requests to the Consul server.
     - `mode` - String value that specifies an action to take if the rate of requests exceeds the limit. You can specify the following values:
-      - `permissive`: The server continues to allow requests and records an error in the logs. 
-      - `enforcing`: The server stops accepting requests and records an error in the logs. 
-      - `disabled`: Limits are not enforced or tracked. This is the default value for `mode`.

     - `read_rate` - Integer value that specifies the number of read requests per second. Default is `-1` which represents infinity.
     - `write_rate` - Integer value that specifies the number of write requests per second. Default is `-1` which represents infinity.
   - `rpc_handshake_timeout` - Configures the limit for how long servers will wait after a client TCP connection is established before they complete the connection handshake. When TLS is used, the same timeout applies to the TLS handshake separately from the initial protocol negotiation. All Consul clients should perform this immediately on establishing a new connection. This should be kept conservative as it limits how many connections an unauthenticated attacker can open if `verify_incoming` is being using to authenticate clients (strongly recommended in production). When `verify_incoming` is true on servers, this limits how long the connection socket and associated goroutines will be held open before the client successfully authenticates. Default value is `5s`.
