Intended Learning Outcome

About MQTT

MQTT is an OASIS standard messaging protocol for the Internet of Things (IoT). It is designed as a simple publish/subscribe messaging transport that is ideal for connecting remote devices. The central communication point is the MQTT broker, it is in charge of dispatching all messages between the senders and the rightful receivers. Each client can publish messages under a specific subject to the MQTT broker. MQTT broker will send these messages to the clients who are subscribed to the specific topic. MQTT today is used in a wide variety of industries, such as automotive, manufacturing, telecommunications, oil and gas, etc.

First, you need the below nodes.

       

Make the following arrangement

 

Setting up the MQTT Broker

Copy the following data from the website

Double click on the MQTT block and click on the pencil mark in the settings menu.

Paste the copied properties in the settings menu and press add.

Then add a unique topic(Eg-Magicbit)

Do this to the other MQTT node also.
