Impact

This module does not have any direct impact on the target system. It solely focuses on detecting the presence of the Hashicorp Consul Agent software and providing information about its configuration.

How does the module work?

The "Hashicorp Consul Agent - Detect" module works by sending an HTTP GET request to the target system's "/v1/agent/self" endpoint. It then analyzes the response to identify specific keywords related to the agent's configuration.

Matching conditions:

- The response must contain the words "Datacenter", "Revision", and "PrimaryDatacenter" in any part of the response.

If the response meets these conditions, the module reports a successful detection of the Hashicorp Consul Agent.

Example HTTP request:

GET /v1/agent/self

Note: The above example is a simplified representation of the actual HTTP request used by the module.
