> Key: NIFI-868
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-868
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core Framework
> Affects Versions: 0.2.1
> Environment: Linux
> Reporter: Chin Huang
> Assignee: Joseph Witt
> Fix For: 0.3.0
>
>
> The host given out to clients to connect to a Remote Process Group Input Port
> is the host where the NiFi instance runs. However, sometimes the binding host
> is different from the host that clients connect to. For example, when a NiFi
> instance runs inside a Docker container, a client on a separate machine must
> connect to the Docker host which forwards the connection to the container.
> Kafka addresses this situation by allowing a broker to configure the host
> name given out to producers, consumers, and other brokers to connect to.
> Implement something similar in NiFi. Add a configuration property to specify
> the host name to give out to clients to connect to a Remote Process Group
> Input Port. If the property is not configured, then give out the name of host
> running the NiFi instance.
