Hi,
I am following the kafka documentation to create encryption and authentication while sending message to kafka by ssl I got stuck at these commands kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list localhost:9093 --topic test --producer.config *client-ssl.properties* kafka-console-consumer.sh --bootstrap-server localhost:9093 --topic test --new-consumer --consumer.config *client-ssl.properties* *I*t is asking for *client-ssl.properties* for producer and consumer config. I am not sure what these files are.I am able to follow these steps : Generate SSL key and certificate for each Kafka broker Creating your own CA <http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#security_ssl_ca> Signing the certificate Configuring Kafka Brokers Can anyone help me in understanding what file does producer config needs exactly? Thanks in Advance
