Envoy extensions enable additional service mesh functionality in Consul by changing how the sidecar proxies behave. Extensions dynamically modify the configuration of Envoy proxies based on Consul configuration entries, enabling a wider set of use cases for the service mesh traffic that passes through an Envoy proxy. Consul supports the following extensions:

- External authorization
- Fault injection
- Lua
- Lambda
- OpenTelemetry Access Logging

The `ext-authz` extension lets you configure external authorization filters for Envoy proxy so that you can route requests to external authorization systems. Refer to the [external authorization documentation](/consul/docs/connect/proxies/envoy-extensions/usage/ext-authz) for more information.

### Fault injection

The `fault-injection` extension lets you alter responses from an upstream service so that users can test the resilience of their system to different unexpected issues. Refer to the [fault injection documentation](/consul/docs/connect/manage-traffic/fault-injection) for more information.

### Lambda

The `lambda` Envoy extension enables services to make requests to AWS Lambda functions through the mesh as if they are a normal part of the Consul catalog. Refer to the [Lambda extension documentation](/consul/docs/connect/proxies/envoy-extensions/usage/lambda) for more information.
