Overview

A custom fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for a device to connect to IoTDA. With a custom domain name, you can manage your own server certificates, including the root certificate authority (CA), signature algorithms, and certificate lifecycles.

Scenarios

Disclosing the domain names to customers for branding.
Inheriting the original domain names and server certificates during migration.

Constraints

Only the standard and enterprise editions support this function.
Only port 8883 connected using MQTT takes effect.
The device must use TLS and support SNI (Server Name Indication). The SNI must carry the required custom domain name.
Only one custom domain name can be configured for an IoTDA instance.
