MQTT IoT Monitor

Monitor IoT devices and sensors using MQTT protocol with broker setup, topic design, and real-time data visualization.

Usage

Describe your IoT monitoring needs and receive MQTT broker configuration, topic hierarchy design, and client setup instructions.

Examples

• "Set up Mosquitto broker with TLS for secure sensor communication"
• "Design an MQTT topic hierarchy for a multi-floor building with 50 sensors"
• "Create a Node-RED dashboard to visualize temperature data from MQTT"

Guidelines

• Use hierarchical topic naming like home/floor1/bedroom/temperature
• Set QoS 1 for sensor readings and QoS 2 for critical commands
• Enable retained messages for current state so new subscribers get last value
• Secure the broker with TLS certificates and username/password authentication
• Use MQTT Explorer for debugging and monitoring message flow during development
