Description

At the moment Cento's Kafka flow exporter only supports a couple of additional Kafka options (compression & broker ack type). Would it be possible to have the same level of support provided in ntopng where a comma-separated list of librdkafka options could be passed?

Research direction

Start with Cento's Kafka flow exporter and compare its option handling with the equivalent ntopng Kafka support. Determine how a comma-separated list of librdkafka options should be accepted, then verify that the exporter supports the requested options at the same level as ntopng.
