Question

Answer 1

Tried connecting to kafka remote cluster from my local machine.

VM's had one internal (9.0.0.1) and one external IP (192.1.1.1). I could ssh only to the internal & not the external. I did these changes to my conifg/server.properties:

//set to the IP of the machine (find using ifconfig or hostname -I)

listeners=PLAINTEXT://192.1.1.1:9092

//set to the IP the consumer and producer will connect

advertised.listeners=PLAINTEXT://9.0.0.1:9092
