ChirpStack Application Server to send data to an Azure Service Bus Queue config

ChirpStack Network Server
1

Hello,

I have followed the Quickstart Azure integration. In the chirpstack-network-server.toml configuration example, it suggests the following settings:

  [network_server.gateway.backend]
  type="azure_iot_hub"

         [network_server.gateway.backend.azure_iot_hub]
         events_connection_string="[Gateway Events Connection String]"
         commands_connection_string="[Gateway Commands Connection String]"

However when I look at my unedited chirpstack-network-server.toml the same setting is currently set as follows:

  [network_server.gateway.backend]
  # Backend
  type="mqtt"

  
    # MQTT gateway backend settings.
    #
    # This is the backend communicating with the LoRa gateways over a MQTT broker.
    [network_server.gateway.backend.mqtt]
    # MQTT topic templates for the different MQTT topics.
    #
    # The meaning of these topics are documented at:
    # https://www.chirpstack.io/gateway-bridge/
    #
    # The default values match the default expected configuration of the
    # ChirpStack Gateway Bridge MQTT backend. Therefore only change these values when
    # absolutely needed.

Now this may be a silly ask but I am confused here, do I actually replace type="mqtt" with type="azure_iot_hub" or must the Azure related settings be additional to the pre-existing settings? I am quite new to this and currently trying to deploy this as a PoC.

Thank you.
