Bharat Viswanadham commented on KAFKA-3567:
-------------------------------------------
[~ewencp] But it is really helpful when using kerberos, as it is mandatory to
use protocol when all brokers are using SASL, so it will be helpful for users
to know about this option. It will be helpful for beginners, as i see many new
beginners using Kafka miss this. So, that is the reason for having this option.
> Add --security-protocol option to console consumer and producer
