MQTT Server


Stuff You Need to Know

What is MQTT? MQTT stands for MQ Telemetry Transport. It is a publish/subscribe, extremely simple and lightweight messaging protocol, designed for constrained devices and low-bandwidth, high-latency or unreliable networks.


How to Configure It

  • Hostname or IP Address:  Enter the host url or IP address of the MQTT server
  • Port:  Port the sever is running on
  • Client ID:  Beats the hell outta me.
  • Secure (ssl): So you want to use a secure ssl connection?
  • Require Authorization:  If checked, then enter a username and pasword for the server.
  • LWT: Little Wu Tangs
    • Oh, not that. Last Will Topic. Enter the Last Will Topic and Last Will Message to be sent before disconnect.
