Description

1. Which is the best way to deploy mirror maker 2.0?  (a dedicated mm2 cluster or running mm2 in a connect cluster) . Could you tell me the difference between them?

2. According to the blog or wiki (https://blog.cloudera.com/a-look-inside-kafka-mirrormaker-2/ , https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-382%3A+MirrorMaker+2.0#KIP-382:MirrorMaker2.0-Config,ACLSync  , https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/cae2a5e1f0779a0889f6cb43b523ebc8a812f4c2/connect/mirror/README.md    ). Mirror Maker 2.0 topic supports dynamic modification of the whielist, but I cannot figure out how to make it. Could you tell me how to solve this problem?
