client with spring.cloud.config.discovery.serviceId (and on the server
in the usual way for a service, e.g. by setting spring.application.name).
The discovery client implementations all support some kind of metadata
+map (e.g. for Eureka we have eureka.instance.metadataMap). Some
+additional properties of the Config Server may need to be configured
+in its service registration metadata so that clients can connect
+correctly. If the Config Server is secured with HTTP Basic you can
+configure the credentials as "username" and "password". And if the
+Config Server has a context path you can set "configPath". Example,
