how to run Kafka console producer in a remote server and feed the data to a topic in a differnent VM

[#1]

Hello All,

I am novice to Kafka. I am receiving SNMP traps in a particular server 'X', but my Kafka is installed in a different server 'Y'. How can I publish the traps using the kafka-console-producer.sh script to load to topic ?. Any help is appreciated

You can use camel-snmp-kafka-connector to receive traps and poll SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) and configure it to send to Kafka topic [1].  

[1] https://camel.apache.org/camel-kafka-connector/0.11.x/reference/connectors/camel-snmp-kafka-source-c...

This connector will be not bundled with the CDP but you can integrate this Apache open source connector as per your requirement. Refer the following stackoverflow article for more details/example [2]
