I’m using an RPi4 with Mosquitto, Node-Red, Influxdb, and Grafana to create a quick and easy way to deploy an IoT Gateway with a built-in dashboard.
I’ve successfully got each section running and passing data by using the Balena-sense project as a reference and adding the Balena-Node-Red. My next step is to ensure that each section is properly secured and I plan to enable TLS for all 4 containers.
I want to create the certificates on the first boot and store them in the persistent data. I will also need to download them to my pc in order to connect as a client to the MQTT broker.
Unfortunately, I have minimal experience using LetsEncrypt or similar services and have never used them on Balena. Is there a recommended method for creating the Certificates?
Thanks.
