hi all, On my ubuntu 14.04 machine, i have a virt-manager/libvirtd private network running. And that has made a virtual network interface, virbr0 with ip 192.168.122.1. in my kafka broker settings, i have set the host.name property to the host name of the machine. When i do netstat -lntp | grep 9092, it listens for connection requests only on 192.168.122.1 and ignores requests with ip as 127.0.0.1/localhost. I can't make host.name as localhost/127.0.0.1 as the connection requests can come from both the local machine and the remote machines.
So, setting host.name is not an option for me. But still how can i ensure kafka broker listens on the interface 0.0.0.0 and hence handle connections from localhost/127.0.0.1/hostname, (or) for any interface available on my local machine thanks, saravana
