General

Edge MQTT Broker

Using the embedded MQTT broker for device connectivity and integration.

Every Edge Gateway runs a lightweight, high-performance MQTT broker. This allows you to ingest data from modern devices that push data rather than waiting to be polled.

Features

  • Port: 1883 (Default)
  • Auth: Token-based or Anonymous (configurable).
  • Hooks: Auto-publishes processed data to hooks/devicedata/{deviceId}.

Topic Structure

You can publish to the standard telemetry topic:

telemetry

Payload (JSON):

{
  "deviceId": "Machine_01",
  "tags": {
    "Temperature": 42.5,
    "Status": "Running"
  },
  "timestamp": "2023-10-27T10:00:00Z"
}

Unified Namespace (UNS) Support

If UNS is enabled, the broker automatically re-publishes this data to the full ISA-95 hierarchy:

proxus/v1/Enterprise/Site/Area/Line/Machine_01
