=============
|
|
|
|
ArduinoHA uses MQTT protocol over TCP to communicate with your Home Assistant instance.
|
|
The MQTT broker is not installed by default so you will need to install an extra HA addon in order to get the integration working.
|
|
|
|
The recommended setup method is to use the `Mosquitto Brokker addon <https://github.com/home-assistant/addons/blob/master/mosquitto/DOCS.md>`_.
|
|
After installing the addon your HA instance acts as a broker for all devices you're going to integrate with it.
