#turn on the recommended ReactiveLoadBalancerClientFilter instead of ribbon
spring.cloud.loadbalancer.ribbon.enabled=false
# turns on withHealthChecks().withCaching
spring.cloud.loadbalancer.configurations=health-check

spring.cloud.gateway.discovery.locator.enabled=true
spring.application.name=demo-gateway

Steps to Reproduce

#1. start consul on loalhost:8500

#2. start demo gateway on port 8080
cd demo-gateway
mvn spring-boot:run

#3. start dmeo service on random port
cd demo-service
mvn spring-boot:run

#4. visit service through gateway
curl localhost:8080/demo-service/hello

#5. shutdown and restart demo-service
