stored data will be transmitted first.
8.4 UDP
Data can be sent via raw UDP to a fixed IP address and port. This method is only suitable for a local
network Wi-Fi connection as the data is not encrypted and there is no authentication. Raw UDP also
provides no acknowledgment that data was received.
8.5 HTTP
An HTTP session is a sequence of network request-response transactions. The ORB initiates a request by
establishing a HTTP connection on a particular port on a client server (typically port 80, occasionally port
8080).
8.6 HTTPS
HTTPS is the secure version of HTTP and is sometimes referred to HTTP over TLS. The ‘S’ at the end of
HTTPS stands for ‘Secure’. It means all communications between your browser and the website are
encrypted. Wherever possible, HTTPS should be used as an alternative to HTTP.
HTTPS requires that the
(CA) certificate of the destination be loaded onto the ORB.
Note for volume applications, the ORB can be pre-configured with CA certificates to allow secure
communications with a customer server.
8.7 MQTT
MQTT is a secure machine-to-machine (M2M) Internet of Things connectivity protocol specifically
designed for low data-rate applications and is perfect for implementation on the ORB. MQTT is the
protocol used when the ORB communicates with the Senquip Portal and is also supported by many open
source IOT platforms such as Thingsboard.
Note The ORB can maintain concurrent MQTT connections to the Senquip portal and a customer server
or SCADA system.
Consideration must be given to data security on open networks. In applications where data security is
critical, the use of MQTTS with encryption and authentication should be considered.
8.8 MQTT over TLS
MQTT over TLS (MQTTS) adds enhanced security as all data is encrypted and secured with SSL certifi-
cates. Most business grade IOT platforms such as AWS (Amazon Web Services) offer MQTTS.
MQTTS is recommended by Senquip as the preferred protocol for use with the ORB as it offers a low
power, reliable, secure connection. The ORB is pre-loaded with certificates allowing secure communica-
