SUMMARY

Kafka consumer appears to not support SASL authentication.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

The underlying kafka-node library appears to support username and password but it does not appear to have been implemented in the consumer module in f5telemetry.

Small snag, the version of kafka-node that appears to be bundled in the 1.2.0 release is 2.6.1. SASL appears to have not been implemented until the 3.0.0 release of kafka-node. SOHU-Co/kafka-node#923

TS version 1.3 introduced the support of SASL-PLAIN auth for Kafka. For further action please open a separate issue.
