How to describe configuration.yaml

mqtt:
  broker: 192.168.0.10    #home assistant IP
  port: 1883                   #Port
  username: abc # first controller
  password: 123

                        # how to add second or the third controller? 

And how to add severals controllers to Mosquitto broker configuration?

Mosquitto broker configuration is same, not need to changed.
just in configuration.yaml add multi controller with different UID in topic.

In all controllers use the same user name and password?

mqtt user name and password is same, because your home assistant have use only 1 Mosquitto broker.
