Kafka - Security

Asecurity.protocol=PLAINTEXT ssl.keystore.location=/path/to/keystore.jks

Bssl.enabled=true security.protocol=SSL

Csasl.mechanism=SSL security.protocol=SASL_SSL

Dsecurity.protocol=SSL ssl.keystore.location=/path/to/keystore.jks ssl.keystore.password=secret

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Check correct SSL config syntax
To enable SSL client authentication, security.protocol must be SSL and keystore location and password must be set.
Step 2: Evaluate other options
security.protocol=PLAINTEXT ssl.keystore.location=/path/to/keystore.jks uses PLAINTEXT which disables SSL; sasl.mechanism=SSL security.protocol=SASL_SSL misuses sasl.mechanism; ssl.enabled=true security.protocol=SSL uses invalid ssl.enabled property.
Final Answer:
security.protocol=SSL ssl.keystore.location=/path/to/keystore.jks ssl.keystore.password=secret -> Option D
Quick Check:
SSL client auth requires security.protocol=SSL and keystore [OK]

Quick Trick: Set security.protocol=SSL and keystore for SSL auth [OK]
