Description
Whether the client should send cluster and node information when connecting to a broker to enable it to check for a misrouted connection. This configuration is ignored if rebootstrapping is disabled by setting the configuration metadata.recovery.strategy=none. If the client is connecting to a broker older than Apache Kafka 4.4, no checking is performed and this configuration has no effect.
