MQTT-SN

[StefanDennig]

Dear Nordic Team,

i found many old posts about MQTT-SN being implemented for other protocols. Is there any chance to get MQTT-SN for Zepyr for the nrf9160, because we want to work with a special cloud provider that (for some reason) only supports MQTT-SN?

kind regards

Hi Stefan

We want to add this at some point, but we don't have the resources at the moment and haven't committed to a schedule for it. 

The issue is that most cloud providers don't support it, so we had to prioritize other protocols. 

So we should have it some time in the future, but I can't make any promises regarding timing yet unfortunately. 

Best regards

Did this ever happen?

Unfortunately not. There is still no support for MQTT-SN in the nRF Connect SDK.

Thanks for the update. 

I think it would be a good feature. I was on a call with Vodafone today and they are quite firm in the fact MQTT should not be used with their NB-IoT network, due to needing TCP connection. They advised moving to a UDP connection via MQTT-SN or moving to COAP. 

Thanks,

Hi Damien

Requests for unsupported features or roadmap information should be forwarded to one of our regional sales directors. If you don't already have a sales contact in Nordic just send me a private message, and I will share the details with you. 

Best regards
