Broker Manager is a browser-based tool for administering event brokers. This tool lets you tune advanced settings, manage queues, and perform administrative tasks. When using Broker Manager with advanced event mesh event broker services, you open Broker Manager from within Cluster Manager.
You must have connectivity to the same network as the event broker services to access Broker Manager. Access to Broker Manager is not possible if you're connecting from the public Internet if:
- the services do not have access to the public Internet (for example in a VPC/VNET) or do not have public endpoints
- only private endpoints are configured on the service
For more information, see Broker Manager.
To configure authentication for Broker Manager, see Pre-Authentication for Broker Manager.
You can perform several event broker service configuration tasks in Broker Manager, including:
- Configuring Queues
- Configuring Partitioned Queues
- Configuring Topic Endpoints
- Configuring Message Replay
- Configuring Kafka Bridging
- Creating a Message VPN Bridge
- Creating a REST Connector
