### Using mosquitto on a mac
1. install mqtt server
```sh
brew install mosquitto
```
2. start the mqtt server
```sh
brew services restart mosquitto
```
3. Do a quick test of server, start a subscriber on a topic:
Note: this will wait until you press control-c (publish a message, see below)
```sh
mosquitto_sub -t test/hello
```
4. In another window, publish a message to that topic:
```sh
mosquitto_pub -h localhost -q 0 -t test/hello -m 'yo!'
```
5. For Meshtastic to be able to access that server, two settings need to be changed in the
`/usr/local/etc/mosquitto/mosquitto.conf` file:
```shell
listener 1883 0.0.0.0
allow_anonymous true
```
6. Restart the service:
```shell
brew services restart mosquitto
```
7. If you are using the mac firewall, you will need to go into: System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Firewall > Firewall Options and add it.
