With the Internet of Things: Edge Connect product, connected users and devices can communicate on a publish-subscribe basis within reserved namespaces. With this behavior enabled, Akamai-external clients can use developer test accounts in a shared environment.

How it works

In conjunction with the JWT behavior, this behavior lets you use your own JSON Web Tokens in your requests, or requests generated by Akamai. You can either enable the default JWT server for your test configuration by setting the authentication endpoint to a default path, or specify custom settings for your JWT server and the authentication endpoint.
