[marian-craciunescu]

• Version: 7.0.0-alpha
• Operating System: centos-7

the version 7.0.0 alpha (compiled from master) is not working with kafka output.
I've compuiled the metricbeat and the log output is

Kafka version is : 0.10.2.1
metricbeat.yml is :

output.kafka:
  hosts: ["kafka.95:9092", "kafka.96:9092", "kafka.97:9092"]
  topic: 'network-metricbeat'
  partition.round_robin:
  reachable_only: false
  required_acks: 1
  compression: none
  max_message_bytes: 1000000

I want to mention that it is working with metricbeat version 6.2.4

Add version: 0.10 to output.kafka. In master the new default version is 1.0.0. The wire protocol protocol of kafka is a little different between versions. While the kafka server can deal with old protocol versions, an old kafka can not deal with newer protocol versions. By adding version: 0.10, you tell the output to use an older protocol version.
