- Events on device takes precedence when comparing remote events. This means tie's are broken by Dn(e) winning over C(e) event when events occur concurrently.
- Example At time T1 a remote user creates an event in the controlling process to changes D1's temperature (Controller: [1,0], Device: [0,0]). A message is sent at T2 by the controller to a subscribing device (Controller: [2,0], Device: [0,0]). Before receipt of this message a second user changes D1's temperature at device time T'1 (Controller: [2,0], Device: [0,1]). The device creates a message at T'2 and sends this temperature update notification to the controller (Controller: [2,0], Device: [0,2]). On receipt of the message send by the controller we will detect an in comparable event where the message vector would be of the form T || T' because Message Vector [2,0] and local Device vector [0,2] where 2 > 0 but 0 !> 2 and the reverse also is in conflict. This means we have detected concurrent events. In this case the message command sent from the controller at T2 is discarded and D1's temp set event takes precedence. D1's time will be advanced to [2,3] and when the controller receives D1's event message it's clock will advance to [3,2].
- If the remote user sends the temperature command again. The time of message sent on C(T3) will be [4,2]. On receipt at D1 it's own clock will advance to [4,4], and the temperature will be set.
## Enabling TLS for Mosquitto
It is recommended to expose Mosquitto using TLS on port 8883 and port 8084 for Secure websockets. This implementation will only enable TLS security over TCP 8883 port. To achieve this declare a new listener for port 8883. All configuration that appears after the new listener declaration applies specifically to that listener.
So the following can be added to the end of the mosquitto.conf
```
listener 8883 0.0.0.0
cafile /mosquitto/certs/ca.crt
certfile /mosquitto/certs/server.crt
keyfile /mosquitto/certs/server.key
# By default an TLS enabled listener will operate in a similar fashion to a
# https enabled web server, in that the server has a certificate signed by a CA
# and the client will verify that it is a trusted certificate. The overall aim
# is encryption of the network traffic. By setting require_certificate to true,
# the client must provide a valid certificate in order for the network
# connection to proceed. This allows access to the broker to be controlled
# outside of the mechanisms provided by MQTT.
#require_certificate false
```
Note at this point clients are not required to provide their own certificate since we have not set `require_certificate true`. This is what we want to start with, but eventually we will want to issue certs to clients that will server not only as their client id but also as their authentication. No passkey is required to use the servery.key in this setup. If there was you would need to provide it in `keyfile_password your_passphrase_here` and the mosquitto.conf file should be limited with `chmod 600`.
