MQTT: session resumption #892

Open oberstet opened 8 years ago

oberstet commented 8 years ago

The following a relevant bits extracted from the MQTT spec.

Network Connection - A construct provided by the underlying transport protocol that is being used by MQTT:

The MQTT protocol requires an underlying transport that provides an ordered, lossless, stream of bytes from the Client to Server and Server to Client.

Client - A program or device that uses MQTT. A Client always establishes the Network Connection to the Server.

Server - A program or device that acts as an intermediary between Clients which publish Application Messages and Clients which have made Subscriptions.

Session - A stateful interaction between a Client and a Server. Some Sessions last only as long as the Network Connection, others can span multiple consecutive Network Connections between a Client and a Server.

The Client Identifier (ClientId) identifies the Client to the Server. Each Client connecting to the Server has a unique ClientId. The ClientId MUST be used by Clients and by Servers to identify state that they hold relating to this MQTT Session between the Client and the Server [MQTT-3.1.3-2].
