Re: [paho-dev] MQTT-SN talk at EclipseCon

Stefano,

MQTT-SN has features which take advantage of the underlying transport's
ability to support multicast or broadcast, like that in UDP for
instance.  This means that gateways (or servers) can advertise their
presence, and then clients can dynamically connect to them, switching
from one gateway to another as needed.

Every client can also multicast or broadcast messages.  This means that
messages can be sent to a gateway or another client without a connection
having to be established.  Each client could also relay messages that it
receives, or filter out those that it is not interested in.

So in MQTT-SN, you can use a connection to a server, similar to MQTT, or
you can use multicast to send messages to every other participant in the
group.

ok thanks for clarification
