Hi!
As you said topics are location independent, which mean that you can define
a topic on only one router and it will be visible on every router connected
into you network.
So if you have two routers: router1 and router2 and you define a topic
testtopic on router1. Then you have a subscriber on router2 that is
subscribed to testtopic (notice no @router1 suffix). This subscriber will
get all messages put into that topic and you don't even need to specify the
location, you only need to know that this topic is defined somewhere on
some router in your network.
I hope this helps,
Best regards,
Kovi
