--Below shows the network structure for MQTT forwarding.
--
--* **For Uplink:**      The sensor sends data to LoRa Gateway via LoRa wireless, The gateway will process these data and forward to remote MQTT Broker via Internet.
--* **For Downlink:** The gateway subscribe a topic in the MQTT broker, when there is update on the topic, the gateway will know and broadcast the data to Local LoRa network.

--
--
--== 3.2  How sensor data is forwarded ==
--
--
--In this MQTT forward feature, the key point is how the gateway process the sensor data.
--
--
--=== 3.2.1  Upstream ===
--
--
--Assume there are two sensor nodes, their ID are Node1 ID: 6734 , Node2 ID: 7456. In the remote MQTT broker there are two topics: Topic1: /channel/765800, Topic2: /channel/367860. We can set up in the gateway to map Node1 to Topic1 and Node2 to Topic2. So when there is a sensor data from Node1, the gateway will forward the data to Topic1, when there is sensor data from Node2, the gateway will forward to Topic2.

--
--(((
--
--)))
--
--=== 3.2.2  Downstream ===
--
--
--The gateway subscribes to a topic of the remote MQTT broker topic. When there is some one publish a value on this topic. The gateway will get it and broadcast to local LoRa Network.
