[HELP] Polling remote TCP server devices #1290

Open star7128 opened 7 months ago

star7128 commented 7 months ago

Describe the issue If field devices only support TCP server communication, can we run TCP client based on existing gateway design?

Somehow like reverse socket connector if my understanding to tb-gateway is correct ...

Hi @star7128,

Thank you for your interest in Thingsboard IoT Gateway, you are right, it may be like a reverse tcp connector, or additional configuration parameter for tcp connector like "role", we will add this feature request to a roadmap.

Hi @imbeacon

It is definitely helpful to be more compatible with field devices. Where to review thingsboard-gateway roadmap? We do not see the roadmap from the repository. Thanks!
