If a self-signed certificate is used, select `Custom`. A custom PEM encoded CA-certificate can be uploaded. Click `NEXT` to show the control to upload the CA certificate.
If the server certificate does not match the hostname then validation will fail. To allow a connection without the verification of the hostname, turn the `Ignore broker certificate validation` switch on.

The MQTT protocol setting defaults to version `3.1.1`. If your MQTT broker supports MQTT version 5 you can set the protocol setting to `5`.

With a secure broker connection it is possible to use a client certificate for authentication. To set the client certificate and private key turn on the option `Use a client certificate` and click "Next" to show the controls to upload the files. Only a PEM encoded client certificates together with a PEM encoded private key can be uploaded. Make sure the private key has no password set.
