Eliona Broker
Eliona Broker – Function and Configuration
The Eliona MQTT Broker serves as the central interface for secure communication between IoT devices and the Eliona platform. It enables the reliable exchange of messages via the MQTT protocol and offers functions for authentication and encryption.
To ensure the security of the communication, SSL certificates can be stored. These ensure an encrypted connection and prevent unauthorized access to the data traffic. In addition, user accounts can be created to provide specific clients with access data.
