A little diagram explaining what i’m using to get a secure mqtt owntracks setup. (reinstall)
Mobile connects with certificates and password to my server in DMZ using port 8883 (no sockets activated at the moment)
Mqtt server in DMZ connects via a bridge to my internal mqtt server. (Both Mosquitto)
Node-red using a worldmap plugin displays the current position of my mobile. Coordinates are stored in a InfluxDB and geolocation is being used to activate/de-activate other node-red nodes.
./generate-CA.sh # creates ca.crt and server.{key,crt}
./generate-CA.sh mqttserver # creates server certs
./generate-CA.sh client workstation # creates client certs
./generate-CA.sh client mobile # creates mobile cert
NOTE: My workstation client is MQTT-explorer, no need to change anything For owntracks on your mobile you need a P12 certicate, thats a combined cert+key certificate.
TLS mosquitto example, change where needed. (this is a multi setup, portforward ONLY 8883 to this instance) 1883 is only for internal bridge communication.

Node-red Flow
Nov 2019 example of a track in nodered (A2 to our old home)
Put the box flat on the table to switch off. When you put it on one side, it will controll your lights brightness. 20,40,60,80 and 100%, just by rotating and putting it down on its sides.

Nice to have’s : Arduino-sleep mode, wakeup with a movement sensor.

I don’t like cloud enabled devices, except if it is my own cloud!
I bought a Hikvision doorcam, when i researched the diverse doorcams where was a hikvision which could use a existing doorchime.
When i got mine in, it did not have this feature. Damn what to do!
Where where several solutions i could think off:
Use as is .. a no-go for me
Offload SSL on a proxy and try to reverse engineer the https communication
Or a hardware solution
I looked at the electronics and tried to find out how things where connected and where things where you could make use of. I soldered some wires to a little print where the pushbutton was located. Now i could read the button press, video was easily captured by using a RTSP port.
