MQTT
MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) is a standard messaging protocol for the Internet of Things (IoT). It was designed for
simplified IoT integration and is used in a wide variety of industries to connect remote devices with a small code footprint and
minimal network bandwidth. The MQTT client in Axis device firmware can simplify integration of data and events produced in the
device to systems which are not video management systems (VMS).
Set up the device as an MQTT client. MQTT communication is based on two entities, the clients and the broker. The clients can
send and receive messages. The broker is responsible for routing messages between clients.
You can learn more about MQTT in AXIS OS Portal .
