Requirement - what kind of business use case are you trying to solve?

We have a secure Kafka cluster running 5.2.2 (we have also tested on 5.3.2)
and are using the tls settings in Jaeger to connect to the cluster. However, it doesn't appear to be working

Problem - what in Jaeger blocks you from solving the requirement?

If we set the kafka client authentication parameter to 'Required' from 'Requested', we get an SSL handshake error in Kafka and a 'client has run out of available brokers' error from the Jaeger log. We believe the certificates are configured correctly.

Any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Proposal - what do you suggest to solve the problem or improve the existing situation?

Any open questions to address
