Can emonPi connect to another MQTT broker?

Patricia_EDC · 2021-04-29T15:06:25.589Z

I am using a MQTT broker where I receive data from multiple devices. I need to know if EmonPi could act as a MQTT client (connect to that MQTT broker and publish messages).
I have read emonPi has a MQTT broker included but I do not know if it can connect to another broker.
Thank you!

Depends is the answer.

Easier way it to bridge the Brokers together.
