Description
I have used the encrypt key in my config file. I have checked the status of gossip protocol. It is set to true. but I didn't find any difference even after removing that option. Can anybody help me how to validate that! How I can verify that encryption is happening through gossip protocol. Thanks in advance.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the Consul configuration for the gossip encryption key and the reported gossip protocol status. The issue names no source file or test; done means documenting a reliable way to verify that gossip encryption is active and explaining the observed difference when the option is removed.
