[jira] [Commented] (FLINK-5581) Improve Kerberos security related documentation

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5581?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15831915#comment-15831915 ]

    [FLINK-5581] [doc] Improve user accessibility for Kerberos-related documentation

    The goal of this PR is to organize Kerberos related information as so:
    
    1. `flink-conf.yaml` configuration for Kerberos security is consolidated in `/setup/config.html#kerberos-based-security`
    2. Internals on how Flink security works consolidated in `/ops/security-kerberos.html`
    3. Connector / component specific configuration (e.g. Kafka, Zookeeper for HA) to authenticate with Kerberos located in their own respective documentation.
    
    In the above documents, instead of duplicate info which may be hard / easily forgotten to be synced, simply use links to reference one another.

>  - https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.2/setup/config.html#kerberos-based-security
> is not completely consistent with each other, and could probably be improved.
> Also, we should add Kerberos settings specific to components in their respective documentations (ex. specifically have a kerberos section in the Kafka connector documentation, to let users access the info easier.)
