Creating an MQTT broker profile through the Kaspersky Security Center 13.2 Web Console

You can create new MQTT broker profiles through the Kaspersky Security Center 13.2 Web Console. Different MQTT broker profiles let you work with different servers and digital platforms that receive events from Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 over the MQTT protocol.

To create a new MQTT broker profile through the Kaspersky Security Center 13.2 Web Console:

1. In the main window of the Web Console, select Devices → Managed devices.
2. Click the name of the device where Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000 is running. If the device name is not on the list, add it to the Managed devices group.
3. In the device properties window that opens, select the Applications tab.
4. Press Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway.

   This opens a window containing information about Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000.

5. Select the Application settings tab.

   • Active, if you want to make a new profile active. In this case, profile settings are uploaded to the MQTT broker and access to certificates from the profile is activated for the MQTT broker.
   • Inactive.

     Only one profile can be active.

9. In the Name field, enter the profile name using letters of the English alphabet.
10. Add a configuration file or certificate to the new profile by clicking the Add button in the upper part of the List of files table.
11. In the file upload pane that opens on the right, do the following:
    1. In the Type drop-down list, select the type of file that you want to add:
       • Main configuration file. This contains the main settings for MQTT broker operation. The main configuration file must be added to the MQTT broker profile so that this profile can be activated. Files in CONF format can be selected.
       • Configuration file. This contains additional settings for MQTT broker operation. Files in CONF format can be selected.
       • Certificate. If you are planning to use an MQTT broker profile to connect to devices or cloud services in an external network, you must upload the Certification Authority certificate, client certificate, and private key. In Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000, you can only upload certificates in PEM format with the CRT extension, and keys in PEM format with the KEY extension.
