Collecting Connection Information

Required Kafka Instance Information

  • Instance connection address and port

    After an instance is created, you can obtain the IP address from the Basic Information tab page of the instance. You can configure all IP addresses on the client. For example, as shown in the following figure, a 100 MB/s instance has three addresses. Instances of other specifications may have a different number of brokers, so the number of addresses vary.

    For public network access, you can use the public network addresses displayed on the Basic Information tab page.
