MQTT (Message Queue Telemetry Transport) is a messaging protocol designed for M2M and IoT connectivity that was invented in 1999. It uses TCP/IP ports 1883 and 8883 and allows clients to publish messages to topics that other clients subscribe to. MQTT defines control packets for connecting, publishing, subscribing, and other operations between clients and a central broker server.

- 2. MQTT MQTT was invented by Dr Andy Stanford-Clark of IBM, and Arlen Nipper of Arcom (now Eurotech), in 1999. As of March 2013, MQTT is in the process of undergoing standardisation at OASIS. The protocol specification has been openly published with a royalty-free license. TCP/IP port 1883 is reserved with IANA for use with MQTT. TCP/IP port 8883 is also registered, for using MQTT over SSL. You can pass a user name and password with an MQTT packet in V3.1 of the protocol. The “SCADA protocol” and the “MQ Integrator SCADA Device Protocol” (MQIsdp) are both old names for what is now known as the MQ Telemetry Transport (MQTT)
- 4. MQTT Terminology Network Connection Application Message Client Server Subscription Topic Name Topic Filter Session MQTT Control Packet
- 5. Network Connection • A construct provided by the underlying transport protocol that is being used by MQTT. • It connects the Client to the Server. • It provides the means to send an ordered, lossless, stream of bytes in both directions.
- 6. Application Message • The data carried by the MQTT protocol across the network for the application.
- 7. Client • A program or device that uses MQTT • A Client always establishes the Network Connection to the Server • Publish Application Messages that other Clients might be interested in. • Subscribe to request Application Messages that it is interested in receiving. • Unsubscribe to remove a request for Application Messages. • Disconnect from the Server.
- 8. Server • A program or device that acts as an intermediary between Clients which publish Application Messages and Clients which have made Subscriptions • Accepts Network Connections from Clients. • Accepts Application Messages published by Clients. • Processes Subscribe and Unsubscribe requests from Clients. • Forwards Application Messages that match Client Subscriptions.
- 9. Subscription • A Subscription comprises a Topic Filter and a maximum QoS. • A Subscription is associated with a single Session. • A Session can contain more than one Subscription. • Each Subscription within a session has a different Topic Filter.
- 10. Topic Name • The label attached to an Application Message which is matched against the Subscriptions known to the Server. • The Server sends a copy of the Application Message to each Client that has a matching Subscription.
- 11. Topic Filter An expression contained in a Subscription, to indicate an interest in one or more topics. 01 A Topic Filter can include wildcard characters. 02
- 12. Session • A stateful interaction between a Client and a Server. • Some Sessions last only as long as the Network Connection, others can span multiple consecutive Network Connections between a Client and a Server.
- 13. MQTT Control Packet • A packet of information that is sent across the Network Connection. • The MQTT specification defines fourteen different types of Control Packet, one of which (the PUBLISH packet) is used to convey Application Messages.
- 14. MQTT Control Packet Format • Fixed Header • Variable Header • Payload
- 15. MQTT Control Packet • CONNECT, Client request to connect to Server • CONNACK, Connect acknowledgment • PUBLISH, Publish message • PUBACK , Publish acknowledgment • PUBREC , Publish received • PUBREL , Publish release • PUBCOMP, Publish complete • SUBSCRIBE, Client subscribe request • SUBACK , Subscribe acknowledgment • UNSUBSCRIBE, Unsubscribe request • UNSUBACK, Unsubscribe acknowledgment • PINGREQ, PING request • PINGRESP, PING response • DISCONNECT, Client is disconnecting

- 19. Remaining Length The Remaining Length is the number of bytes remaining within the current packet, including data in the variable header and the payload. The Remaining Length does not include the bytes used to encode the Remaining Length.
- 20. Variable Header Some types of MQTT Control Packets contain a variable header component. It resides between the fixed header and the payload The content of the variable header varies depending on the Packet type. The Packet Identifier field of variable header is common in several packet types.
- 21. Packet Identifier • The variable header component of many of the Control Packet types includes a 2 byte Packet Identifier field. • These Control Packets are PUBLISH (where QoS > 0), PUBACK, PUBREC, PUBREL, PUBCOMP, SUBSCRIBE, SUBACK, UNSUBSCRIBE, UNSUBACK.
- 22. Payload Control Packet Payload CONNECT Required CONNACK None PUBLISH Optional PUBACK None PUBREC None PUBREL None PUBCOMP None SUBSCRIBE Required SUBACK Required UNSUBSCRIBE Required UNSUBACK None PINGREQ None PINGRESP None DISCONNECT None
