Does anyone know what is bootstrap.servers=
esv4-hcl198.grid.linkedin.com:9092 means in the following test command:

bin/kafka-run-class.sh org.apache.kafka.clients.tools.ProducerPerformance
test7 50000000 100 -1 acks=1 bootstrap.servers=
esv4-hcl198.grid.linkedin.com:9092 buffer.memory=67108864 batch.size=8196?

what is bootstrap.servers? Is it the kafka server that I am running a test
at?

Thanks.

Yuheng
