Well, my ESP8266 talks with the MQTT broker (mosquitto), as the log shows:

1557439140: New connection from 192.168.1.5 on port 1883.
1557439140: New client connected from 192.168.1.5 as Lamp-0101_1 (c1, k10, u'').

The firmware on this ESP8266 is ESPEasy.

You will have to set it up when programming your ESP8266. It depends on where you have required the code from but most of them have section somewhere that you need to define the wireless SSID, password, device or MQTT ID and inbound outbound channels.
A client (your esp device) needs to define these details when sending a message.

FYI. I have been using MQTT toolbox or MQTT FX (not at my pc ATM) WHICH IS super handy to test channels and confirm the talk on these channels.

So, by having both:

MQTT Embedded Broker and MQTT system broker connection

i found out that embedded broker do the same that the mosquitto servcer installed, wich is binded by system broker connection.

Having mosquitto installed and mqtt system broker connection configured, i can uninstall the mqtt embedded broker.

Is this correct?

Yes, the embedded MQTT broker and Mosquitto do the same job.

thx, so i can uninstall embedded MQTT broker.

Thank you for being so kind and educating me in openhab basics.
