[jira] [Commented] (KAFKA-13247) Adding functionality for loading private key entry by alias from the keystore

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13247?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17437398#comment-17437398 ]

-------------------------------------

Hi [~tmargaryan] 

Thank you for reporting this issue. I was working on the security features nowadays, and it seems like I can take this issue; but before that, I have one question: Could you clarify a case when Kafka needs this feature? AFAIK, Kafka Broker uses only one private key in the Keystore in most cases. Is there any case I have not encountered yet?

> Hello team,
> While configuring SSL for Kafka connectivity , I found out that there is no possibility to choose/load the private key entry by alias from the keystore defined via org.apache.kafka.common.config.SslConfigs.SSL_KEYSTORE_LOCATION_CONFIG. It turns out that the keystore could not have multiple private key entries .
> Kindly ask you to add that config (smth. like SSL_KEY_ALIAS_CONFIG) into SslConfigs with the corresponding functionality which should load only the private key entry by defined alias.
>  
> Thanks in advance.
