Forward to Virtual Cluster

The Forward to Virtual Cluster policy forwards messages from Kafka clients to virtual clusters configured with port or SNI routing.

The following examples provide some common configurations for the Forward to Virtual Cluster policy:

Note: When using port_mapping, there must be a mapping port for each broker on the backend cluster.

Each listener can have multiple Forward to Virtual Cluster policies configured. However, there can only be one instance of port_mapping.

When multiple Forward to Virtual Cluster policies are configured, the first one that matches the connection is used. If no policy matches, the connection is rejected.
