Feature request: MQTT Broker and pub/sub

RouterOS RouterOS beta

Hello
Lets put it here like feature request. I see it on forum.

It would be great to have MQTT broker on Mikrotik devices (like mosquitto), auth support, acl support TLS-SSL, qos… Like packet or included in system packet.
It require little resources, but can do lots of thing now and in feature. Now that Mikrotik have Lora Gateway, We can have combine that with MQTT.
Also pub/sub are require to give easy way to make communication, so using this MQTT, MT can send/receve, run scripts and lot more. Like I write, possabilitis are endless.

If it is imposible to make broker, then just pub/sub without broker. For settup, CLI is more then good, no need for Winbox support.
Broker can be on linux, BUT it is much easy sometimes to have it on some MT device (like CCR, RB1100AHx4, ARM or any other …) and to use it for, IoT, network devices, etc…

Continue with good job MT.

Yes!! mikrotik router working as a broker would be great but i’m not sure if is that possible, hope so.
For now, its possible to Publish using the 6.48.3 version with IoT package

With docker support there should be no problem to run mosquitto.

Hi, I checked it out. There is indeed an mqtt client in iot package, but it is not a broker ( server). What would be nice though is to have a proper broker (like mosquitto). I understand that certain mqtt features like persistency and message retention might be tricky though.
