You might ask your ISP if they have IPv6 available which is the long term solution to not having to deal with port forwarding or NAT. PS: Isn't NAT & port forwarding fun? (that was sarcasm). Then you repeat the process for router B: set a static IP address on the server, and then on router B, forward the port to the server's static IP.
Then on router A, you need to set up port forwarding to router B's address. So if you have two routers, A & B, with B behind A and A connected to your ISP, you need to set router B to have a static IP address on it's WAN/upstream connection (which is router A's "LAN" network). Obviously, if you are behind the same router, you should just use the internal address instead of the public address (if possible, IE, you aren't using DNS names that answer with the same address regardless of what router you are behind).įourth, if you have multiple routers, with multiple layers of NAT, the whole "set a static internal IP & forward a port to that" applies to each router. So it could be all working, and just how you are testing it could be broken. But it will work for everyone else "out on the internet" (IE, people not behind the same router). Third, where are you testing connecting with the outside address (96.221.154.134)? If it is from behind the same router, unless your router supports "hairpin NAT" (which most consumer routers don't) then it will not work. Second, looking at your screenshot of the port forwarding settings, it mostly looks good, EXCEPT, it has 192.168.0.144, which is different than the 192.168.0.155 listed in the comments on the question. But if your server is Dynamic (using DHCP) then it will occasionally move, and every time it does, it will break the port forwarding.
The reason for this is that when you set up a port forward, it will want to know what internal (192.168.0.x range) address to forward to. If you can get to the port on the local network, then the problem is definitely with the port forwarding.įirst, does your server machine have a static IP address inside the network? If not, I highly recommend getting that fixed first.
I am assuming that your server has internet access. Hope this saves someone some time down the road! Now all pathways are open, you can follow the other Mosquitto instructions regarding logging, config files, Daemons, etc. I still have both forwardings in place (ie the Fios and the tp-link) and my guess is that I need them both. It had an address of 192.168.0.152 assigned to it from the Verizon router. The Archer C1200 was actually the device that I needed to forward to - it handled the correct distribution from there. All of the online how-to's said I should forward port 1883 to the local IP address of my Linux Server, which in my case was 192.168.0.144. But that firewall comes after the Fios firewall so I needed to go to the first wall and do the port forward there.Īnd this is the second thing that is tricky. I started by putting the port forwarding in the tp-link. I have my own wireless router, a tp-link Archer C1200, that I have plugged into the Fios Modem/Router. In my case, I have a Verizon Modem that ALSO has a firewall (because it has a router). Step 7: If Port Shows Closed When coming In from Internet (ie not localhost) Step 6: Check Connectivity using web tool In fact, you can do this step before you even open the firewall, since this is all on the local network, the firewall rules are irrelevant at this point.

Go to your client machine (in my case a Windows 10 laptop) and run the MQTT client, connecting to the local address of the Linux Mosquitto server (in my case 192.168.0.144). Step 5: Check connectivity using local host Step 4: Start Mosquitto with verbose option mosquitto -v Step 3: Verify Mosquitto is not already running pgrep mosquitto Step 2: Open Port 1883 and start firewall sudo ufw allow 1883

Step 1: Install Mosquitto Software sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mosquitto-dev/mosquitto-ppa Setting up the MOSQUITTO MQTT Server in Ubuntu 18.04 is actually not hard, but the steps are important. I'm posting this as an answer so I can give more detail in case anyone stumbles upon this in the future.
