# eventbroker create

This command creates an [event broker configuration](/docs-5-4/docs/publishing-s3-bucket-events-to-third-party-event-brokers) on the VAST cluster.

## Usage

```plaintext
eventbroker create --name NAME
                   --addresses ADDRESSES
                   [--tenant-ID TENANT_ID]
```

## Required Parameters

| `--name NAME` | The name for the new event broker configuration. |

| `--addresses ADDRESSES` | Enter one or more event broker bootstrap URLs. Specify `ADDRESSES` as a comma-separated list of `<host>:<port>` pairs, where: - `<host>` is an IP address or FQDN of the event broker server. - `<port>` is the port number. You can specify up to five `<host>:<port>` pairs. For example: `192.168.1.1:9092,192.168.1.2:9092` > [!TIP] > Tip > > Ensure that the hosts are accessible from the VAST cluster's management interface at the specified ports. |

## Options
