topologies mix and match these two.

For a standard Kubernetes deployment, both CA and discovery will use JWT authentication, with a token automatically
[generated and rotated by Kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-service-account/#service-account-token-volume-projection).

For discovery, the JWT token will be read directly from a file and sent as is. For CA, this logic is a bit more complex,
