Security Settings Tab

Use

On this tab, you can enter an application certificate that differs from the MQTT client, if required, for the MQTT destination system. This might be useful if you want to connect to the same MQTT server across several MQTT destination systems that each have a different client ID. In this case, you can create a common MQTT source system for the server connection, but maintain a standalone application certificate for each of the MQTT destination systems, that is, for each of the client IDs.

Prerequisites

The security settings are only ready for input if you have defined a prefix for a secure connection (wss or mqtts) in the Server URI field on the Client tab.

Procedure

In the Origin of Certificate screen area, select one of the two options:

Origin of Certificate
Radio Button Description

Inherited from Client

With this option, the certificate of the corresponding MQTT source system (client) is valid for the MQTT destination system.

This is the default setting.

Defined in Current Destination System

Select this option if you want to define your own application certificate for the destination system. You can then choose the Select Certificate pushbutton to select an application certificate.
