Hi, Have you checked the section on security here? It's got a comprehensive guide
https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#security_sasl To answer your questions briefly - Broker to Broker should be plainTEXT (or SSL if inter-broker security is enabled then broker2brorker works as a client coms) - zookeeper to broker should be plaintext - client to broker should be plaintext But then, I would recommend you read the guidlines above. We setup our security nicely with the above guidelines, however they were not using SASL but only SSL.
