  • 1.  How do I open more port on a Cloud Foundry App

    Posted Mon February 22, 2021 10:45 AM
    Hello,
    I have a Node-Red instance setup on Cloud Foundry. In Node-Red, I've installed the node-red-contrib-aedes MQTT broker and it works if I connect nodes to in via localhost on port 1883. I need to expose port 1883 to the world. How do I do that?
    Thanks!

    This is not supported in IBM Cloud Foundry Public, only TCP routing is supported. The Node Red "MQTT broker" running inside a node-red app will not work with only incoming TCP routing. Basic functions of node-red will work but not "hosting" this broker in the app.

    Examples of supported Node-red function is something like this => https://cloud.ibm.com/developer/appservice/create-app?starterKit=59c9d5bd-4d31-3611-897a-f94eea80dc9f and related to this Github https://github.com/IBM/node-red-app and this Developer blog https://developer.ibm.com/components/node-red/tutorials/how-to-create-a-node-red-starter-application and a video included.
