First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for administration of a broker-based publish/subscribe messaging system, comprising:
- with a processor executing a broker, establishing a session-based network connection with a processor executing a publish/subscribe client application;
with said processor executing said broker, receiving administration commands as messages from the processor executing said publish/subscribe client application via the session-based network connection; and
with said processor executing said broker, sending response messages via the session-based network connection to only the processor executing said administering publish/subscribe client application;
wherein a first said response message from the broker specifies a randomly generated session topic name, and wherein the broker only accepts as administration commands messages sent with the randomly generated session topic name.

Abstract
A broker-based publish/subscribe messaging system is administered in which a session-based network connection (such as TCP/IP) from an administrator publish/subscribe client application is established with a broker. Administration commands are received as messages from the administrator publish/subscribe client application at the broker via the session-based network connection and response messages are sent from the broker via the session-based network connection to only the administrator publish/subscribe client application.
