[jira] [Comment Edited] (KAFKA-6496) NAT and Kafka

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6496?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16348230#comment-16348230 ]

[~Ronald van de Kuil] Do you encounter any problems? I don't think it affect you to use kafka inside vm created by openstack. Because neutron will create nat rule for every vm, and your floating-ip will convert fix-ip automatically while passed to kafka inside vm.

> Hi,
> As far as I know Kafka itself does not support NAT based on a test that I did with my physical router.
>  
> I can imagine that a real use case exists where NAT is desirable. For example, an OpenStack installation where Kafka hides behind floating ip addresses.
>  
> Are there any plans, to make Kafka NAT friendly?
>  
> Best Regards,
> Ronald
