Henry RawasThe lora-network-server.conf file allows the MQTT host and port to be changed, so messages could be sent to another server instead of remaining in the Conduit. This works.
Is it possible to configure the MQTT connection between the lora server and MQTT to be secured? For example to use TLS and/or specify a user name and password?
Brandon BayerHenry,
We don’t currently support that. Your best bet would be to use Node-RED (or a simple nodejs app) as a proxy to receive MQTT from the lora server and then post them to another, secured MQTT server.

Frederik VannieuwenborgBrandon,
Any plans to support this? Yes, when would it be available? It would be realy handy!

Jason ReissWe will be adding more mqtt message events to the lora-network-server.
I am not sure you would want all these events routed off box and possibly over a cellular connection.
It would be better to proxy with a filter for a specific mqtt topic.
Plus changing the config will cause the lora nodes to not function without being configured with username and password.
Suryadiputra LiawatimenaDear all,
Your best bet would be to use Node-RED (or a simple nodejs app) as a proxy to receive MQTT from the lora server and then post them to another, secured MQTT server.
Please give us the node-red example to receive MQTT from the Lora Server (what is the credential, broker parameter). And also how to post them into MQTT Server such as BlueMix.
Thank you very much in advance.
Warmest Regards,
Suryadi
