### Trusted clusters
|
||||
|
||||
A **Trusted Cluster** is a remote **Teleport cluster** joined to your own
|
||||
cluster via a trust relationship. Users in your Teleport cluster can access
|
||||
resources in a Trusted Cluster.
|
||||
Teleport allows you to configure a **trusted cluster relationship** between a
|
||||
**root cluster** and one or more **leaf clusters** that trust the root cluster
|
||||
certificate authority. The trust relationship between the root and leaf clusters
|
||||
enables users authenticated in the root cluster to access resources
|
||||
in leaf cluster. The root and leaf cluster operate independently with their own
|
||||
users, roles, and resources, but the trust relationship allows users with certain roles
|
||||
in the root cluster to be mapped to roles and permissions defined in the leaf cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
In a Trusted Cluster relationship, the remote cluster is called a **leaf
|
||||
cluster**. Your cluster, if you are adding a leaf cluster to it, is called a
|
||||
**root cluster**.
