Most of the required information is provided by the default configuration {@link DefaultEurekaClientConfig}. The users just need to provide the eureka server service urls. The Eureka server service urls can be configured by 2 mechanisms 1) By registering the information in the DNS. 2) By specifying it in the configuration.
Once the client is registered, users can look up information from {@link DiscoveryClient} based on virtual hostname (also calledVIPAddress), the most common way of doing it or by other means to get the information necessary to talk to other instances registered with Eureka.Note that all configurations are not effective at runtime unless and otherwise specified.
