+### Consul Namespace
+
+Consul does not allow ACL policies associated with namespaces to use agent
+permissions. Nomad requires `agent:read` permissions. In order to use the
+`consul_namespace` feature, Nomad will need a token generated in Consul's
+default namespace. That token should be created with `agent:read` as well
+as a `namespace` block with the other relevant permissions for running Nomad
+in the intended namespace. The Consul policy below shows an example policy
+configuration for a Nomad server:
+
+```
+agent_prefix "" {
+  policy = "read"
+}
+
+namespace "nomad-ns" {
+  acl = "write"
+
+  key_prefix "" {
+    policy = "read"
+  }
+
+  node_prefix "" {
+    policy = "read"
+  }
+
+  service_prefix "" {
+    policy = "write"
+  }
+}
+```
