Connect Arduino to local MQTT broker using loopback

Unusual and odd question for you. Is it possible to have an Arduino connect to an MQTT broker through a loopback connection and more importantly can this be done with no ethernet or WiFi connection.



I'm working with a device (IoT2020) that can run Arduino sketches (Intel Galileo Gen2). It also runs Yocto Linux and with that runs Node-Red and Mosquitto. The issue I'm having is being able to have the Arduino side send data to the MQTT broker. If I had two ethernet ports I would/could use both of them, one for the Arduino side and the other for the Linux side. While this is doable (would need a WiFi and Ethernet connection) its cumbersome and very inefficient.



I was therefore hoping that there may be som einetrnal way to send the data from the Arduino side to the Linux side via MQTT but without "leaving" the IoT2020 (i.e without using two connections).



Thanks
Kas
