Configuration Properties

The following table explains the attributes of Kafka and provides a description for each one of them.

Following is a sample JSON configuration snippet to ingest syslogs from a kafka broker sf-kafka-cluster.example.com:9092 and topic syslog-example. Note that in this example, messages pushed in the topic "syslog-example" must adhere to standard syslog encoding as specified in IETF RFCs. This will be equivalent to the UDP payload if syslogs were sent over UDP transport.

    "syslog": {
        "proto": "kafkaReader",
        "disable": false,
        "lb": {
            "kafkaReader": {
                "broker": "sf-kafka-cluster.example.com:9092",
                "topic": "syslog-example"
            }
        }
    }
