Answer - marcel - March-15th-2018

I'd like to receive cloud-to-device messages from iot hub in node red. I use a MQTT input node and configured it according to this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/iot-hub/iot-hub-mqtt-support

The only thing I am stuck is the TLS/SSL configuration. According to the article, I have to download and reference the DigiCert Baltimore Root Certificate. I wonder if this certificate is already installed or how I can install it and what to fill in in the MQTT TLS settings.

I hop I understood it well. I recommend to use Microsoft's offical ready-to-use Azure Node-RED node.

I have used it already myself with my private IoT Hub Demo account and it worked. I saw the messages I sent directly in the embedded IoT hub browser. Unfortunately my account expired.
