In the video I demonstrate a simple flow to monitor the status of multiple MQTT brokers and also gives you a rough indication of message delay through the broker.
The flow displays data on a graph but we could also log it to a database.
This is my preferred method on monitor MQTT brokers as it doesn't require that the broker support $SYS topics and in monitors the broker and not the machine that the broker runs on as with the ping method
