+### Specify service constraints
+
+You can limit the set of nodes where a task can be scheduled by defining
+constraint expressions. Multiple constraints find nodes that satisfy every
+expression (AND match). Constraints can match node or Docker Engine labels as
+follows:
+
+| node attribute | matches | example |
+|:------------- |:-------------| :---------------------------------------------|
+| node.id | node ID | `node.id == 2ivku8v2gvtg4`                               |
+| node.hostname | node hostname | `node.hostname != node-2`                    |
+| node.role | node role: manager | `node.role == manager`                      |
+| node.labels | user defined node labels | `node.labels.security == high`      |
+| engine.labels | Docker Engine's labels | `engine.labels.operatingsystem == ubuntu 14.04`|
+
+`engine.labels` apply to Docker Engine labels like operating system,
+drivers, etc. Swarm administrators add `node.labels` for operational purposes by
+using the `docker node update` command.
+
+For example, the following limits tasks for the redis service to nodes where the
+node type label equals queue:
+
+```bash
+$ docker service create \
+  --name redis_2 \
+  --constraint node.labels.type == queue
+```
