Azure IoT Hub is an open and flexible cloud platform that supports open-source SDKs and multiple protocols.

Introduction

This article contains instructions on how to configure an RUT router in order to connect to the Azure IoT Hub.

Prerequisites

You will need:

  • A router from the RUT2xx, RUT9xx series or RUTX09
  • An Azure IoT Hub account

Configuring the device

  • Login to the router's WebUI and go to the System → Administration → Azure IoT Hub page.

  • Configure the main connection settings:

    • The "Connection string" should be provided by Azure. The format of the string should something like this:
      HostName=aics-prod-hub.azure-devices.net;DeviceId=6eLklROrG5;SharedAccessKey=xcRgQpJtY13laOumje3DrxJw1R3LlqnKmVxPFA0Z7Rw=
    • Take note that a lower sending interval value will mean more data usage.

  • Below the main connection settings there is a list of parameters that will be sent to the Azure IoT Hub. Place check marks next to parameters that are relevant you (once again take into account that more parameters will mean more data usage).

    Note: the parameters in the figure above are selected for demonstrative purposes. Select the parameters that are relevant to your solution.

  • Don't forget to save the configuration:
