merlimat opened a new issue #372: Allow to configure a specific address to advertise the bookie URL: https://github.com/apache/bookkeeper/issues/372 Currently the bookies advertise itself, by default based on its own IP. There are ways to control: * Which IP to use, by selecting a `listeningInterface` * Whether to use the machine hostname, by setting `useHostNameAsBookieID` Though there is no way to force a particular address which the bookie should use to advertise itself. This can be necessary in some deployment scenarios for different reasons: * The Machine/VM has multiple IPs. One public and one private. The bookie should bind on the private IP but it should advertise the public IP to clients. * The bookie runs inside container (or pods) and the IP might change across restart, so we need a more "stable" bookie identifier (eg: the host machine IP or hostname). For these reason, we should allow to control the `advertisedAddress` in the bookie config: ```properties advertisedAddress=10.0.0.2 ... ``` ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
