Error description

  • Add support for enabling two-way TLS between ZAPM components
    that are communicating using the internal Kafka service network.
    
    Users Affected: Any zAPM Connect users deploying in a
    production cluster environment that want to secure communication
    between ZAPM components within the cluster.
    
    Problem Description: By default Kafka does not use encryption
    when transmitting data over its internal broker network. Data
    could be intercept and read.
    
    Solution: By enabling two-way TLS for Kafka's internal
    communication the Kafka broker will both authenticate users and
    encrypt the data it is transmitting. This ensures only
    authenticated users (ZAPM components) can read transmitted data.
    Please refer to the product documentation for instructions on
    how to enable two-way TLS.
