Hello everyone,
I have successfully launched Node-RED on my Oracle Cloud instance and opened all necessary ports for the devices we want to integrate & connect.
Can you advise on what is a typical config for such application?
The devices communuicate on TCP. I have not done any Protocol integration, but I want to create the first connection, so everything will fall into place.
Thank you in advance.
Michael
