description: "Authentication mechanism enabled for this Kafka user. The supported authentication mechanisms are `scram-sha-512`, `tls`, and `tls-external`. \n\n* `scram-sha-512` generates a secret with SASL SCRAM-SHA-512 credentials.\n* `tls` generates a secret with user certificate for mutual TLS authentication.\n* `tls-external` does not generate a user certificate. But prepares the user for using mutual TLS authentication using a user certificate generated outside the User Operator.\n ACLs and quotas set for this user are configured in the `CN=<username>` format.\n\nAuthentication is optional. If authentication is not configured, no credentials are generated. ACLs and quotas set for the user are configured in the `<username>` format suitable for SASL authentication."
