Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway can send notifications about security events and audit events over the MQTT protocol.

To configure delivery of MQTT notifications:

  1. In the menu in the left part of the web interface page, select the MQTT broker section.
  2. In the Profiles table, in the Name column, click the  icon next to the active profile.
  3. Select the profile's configuration file.

    The Edit MQTT configuration file window opens.

  4. In the lower part of the opened window, click the  icon.

    This opens a text editor window for editing the configuration file.

  5. In the text editor window, add the MQTT broker settings to the beginning of the file.

    The system supports the following additional settings for configuring MQTT notifications:

    • kos_audit <value>. If the value is set to true, Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway sends audit events over the MQTT protocol. If the value is set to false, Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway does not send audit events over the MQTT protocol. By default, the value is set to true.
    • kos_event <value>. If the value is set to true, Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway sends security events over the MQTT protocol. If the value is set to false, Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway does not send security events over the MQTT protocol. By default, the value is set to false.
    • kos_audit_topic <Topic name>. This lets you define the topic for sending audit events. This setting is ignored if kos_audit is set to false. By default, the topic name is set to SGW/audit.
    • kos_event_topic <Topic name>. This lets you define the topic for sending audit events. This setting is ignored if kos_event is set to false. By default, the topic name is set to SGW/event.
  6. If you are using a network bridge, configure topic mapping in the Connection section of the configuration file. For more details on the settings of the Eclipse Mosquitto configuration file, please refer to the documentation on the developer's website.
  7. Click Save in the lower part of the page to save the changes.

    The text editor window closes.
