# MQTT-SN Transparent / Aggrigating Gateway **MQTT-SN** requires a MQTT-SN Gateway which acts as a protocol converter to convert **MQTT-SN messages to MQTT messages**. MQTT-SN client over SensorNetwork can not communicate directly with MQTT broker(TCP/IP). This Gateway can run as a transparent or aggrigating Gateway by specifying the gateway.conf. The Aggregating Gateway can not receive PUBLISH message from the broker at this version. ### **step1. Build the gateway** ```` $ git clone -b develop https://github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt-sn.embedded-c $ cd paho.mqtt-sn.embedded-c/MQTTSNGateway $ make [SENSORNET={udp6|xbee}] $ make install $ make clean ```` By default, a gateway for UDP is built. In order to create a gateway for UDP6 or XBee, SENSORNET argument is required. MQTT-SNGateway, MQTT-SNLogmonitor and *.conf files are copied into ../ directory. If you want to install the gateway into specific directories, enter a command line as follows: ```` $ make install INSTALL_DIR=/path/to/your_directory CONFIG_DIR=/path/to/your_directory ```` ### **step2. Execute the Gateway.** ```` $ cd ../../ $ ./MQTT-SNGateway [-f Config file name] ```` If you get the error message as follows: ```` what(): RingBuffer can't create a shared memory. Aborted (core dumped) ```` You have to start using sudo command only once for the first time. ```` $ sudo ./MQTT-SNGateway [-f Config file name] ```` ### **How to Change the configuration of the gateway** **../gateway.conf** Contents are follows:

**BrokerName** to specify a domain name of the Broker, and **BrokerPortNo** is a port No of the Broker. **BrokerSecurePortNo** is for TLS connection. **MulticastIP** and **MulticastPortNo** is a multicast address for GWSEARCH messages. Gateway is waiting GWSEARCH and when receiving it send GWINFO message via MulticastIP address. Clients can get the gateway address (Gateway IP address and **GatewayPortNo**) from GWINFO message by means of std::recvfrom(). Client should know the MulticastIP and MulticastPortNo to send a SEARCHGW message. **GatewayId** is used by GWINFO message. **KeepAlive** is a duration of ADVERTISE message in seconds. when **AggregatingGateway** or **ClientAuthentication** is **YES**, All clients which connect to the gateway must be declared by a **ClientsList** file. Format of the file is ClientId and SensorNetwork Address. e.g. IP address and Port No etc, in CSV. more detail see clients.conf. When **QoS-1** is **YES**, QoS-1 PUBLISH is available. All clients which send QoS-1 PUBLISH must be specified by Client.conf file. When **PredefinedTopic** is **YES**, **Pre-definedTopicId**s specified by **PredefinedTopicList** are effective. This file defines Pre-definedTopics of the clients. In this file, ClientID,TopicName and TopicID are declared in CSV format. When **Forwarder** is **YES**, Forwarder Encapsulation Message is available. Connectable Forwarders must be declared by a **ClientsList** file. ### ** How to monitor the gateway from remote. ** Change gateway.conf as follows: ``` # LOG ShearedMemory=YES; ```` Restart the gateway with sudo only once to create shared memories. open ssh terminal and execute LogMonitor. `$ ./MQTT-SNLogmonitor` Now you can get the Log on your terminal. ## ** Tips ** Uncomment the line 62, 63 in MQTTSNDefines.h then you can get more precise logs. ``` /*================================= * Log controls ==================================*/ //#define DEBUG // print out log for debug //#define DEBUG_NWSTACK // print out SensorNetwork log ```
