Enables end-to-end distributed tracing for APIs served by APISIX by configuring the Zipkin plugin via the a6 CLI.
Create a route with the zipkin plugin and set endpoint and sample_ratio to start tracing.

To enable Zipkin distributed tracing in APISIX, configure the zipkin plugin on your routes using the a6 CLI by setting the required endpoint and sample_ratio fields. This sends traces to Zipkin-compatible collectors.
Yes, the APISIX Zipkin plugin can send traces to Jaeger because it supports Zipkin-compatible collectors. You just need to point the plugin's endpoint configuration to your Jaeger collector address.
B3 propagation preserves trace context across services by passing specific headers. The Zipkin plugin uses B3 propagation to ensure distributed traces remain linked as requests move through different microservices routed by APISIX.
Control sampling rates for APISIX tracing by configuring the sample_ratio field on the zipkin plugin. This per-request sampling setting allows you to balance tracing visibility with backend collector overhead.
The Zipkin plugin is configured on a per-route basis in APISIX. You apply the plugin configuration with required fields like endpoint and sample_ratio to each specific route to enable tracing for it.
