I applied kafka-config to get the default settings for the brokers, kafka-configs --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --entity-type brokers --entity-default --describe
The command responded with the following response, without any *complete* output. Default configs for brokers in the cluster are: 1. So, how to get the all the default settings across all brokers 2. I understood from the command line what it means, didnt get the context completely. What is the real difference between entity-default ,entity-name >From documentation: --entity-default Default entity name for clients/users/brokers (applies to corresponding entity type in command line) --entity-name <String> Name of entity (topic name/client id/user principal name/broker id)
