Resolving Colliding Edge Nodes

To resolve the colliding Edge Node IDs you will need to review your system configurations which generated each of the conflicting Edge Nodes and remove the conflicts.

Tip
Refer to the MQTT Configuration guide and the MQTT Transmission Transmitters and Tag Trees Tutorial/HowTo for configuration help.


Note
When troubleshooting remember that an update to any MQTT Transmission configuration parameter or a forced refresh of a transmitter, will mean that any dynamic Client IDs will be recreated. New logs will have reviewed after the update or refresh in order to correctly identify the problematic edge Nodes.
