Hi,

How do we set different server and port for "mqtt in" and "mqtt out" nodes ?

Currently if I add "mqtt in" and "mqtt out" nodes and set the server and port fornode, the "mqtt out" node also takes the same server and port. I need to configure "mqtt in" and "mqtt out" with different server and port. How can I do this?

Regards,  
Harsha

In the Server field, select `Add new mqtt-broker` then click the button next to the field.

Make sure you give each `mqtt-broker` configuration a unique name so you can more easily pick the right one from the list when configuring other nodes.
