The MQTT Broker also supports a functionality called '''Bridge'''. An MQTT Bridge is used for the communication between two MQTT Brokers. The window of Bridge parameters is presented below. Some of these are mandatory as they are needed to create a connection: '''Connection Name, Remote Address and Remote Port'''. For more information on '''MQTT Bridge''' parameters you can read the official mosquitto.org manual page.
