Description

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.
