Default Configuration for Software Event Brokers

A Solace PubSub+ software event broker starts with a basic configuration that enables many common services that can be modified as required.

The following services are included in the basic configuration.

  • The message spool is configured and enabled. The maximum spool usage is set to 1500 MB.
  • The message VPN named default is enabled with no client authentication.
  • The client username called default in the default Message VPN is enabled. The client username default has all settings enabled.
  • All features are unlocked and do not require a product key.
  • All services are enabled and the table below lists their default port numbers.

    • TLS/SSL services will not become operational until a server certificate is installed.

    In cloud environments (for example, AWS), ports are typically blocked by the default security group. To access them, you have to allow access in the security group.
