Monitoring IoT Devices on NMS
- 0 Collaborators
On a centralized Network Management System, the IoT devices can be monitored for availablility (based on their IP address reachability). Also the devices can be monitored for Uptime, data utilization using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) for the devices that supports this. ...learn more

Overview / Usage
Just like the management of existing Network devices like routers, switches and servers are important to ISPs and enterprise businesses, the centralized management system for the IoT devices in the industrial environment is also becoming important.
Although most IoT device manufacturer have management software for their specific devices, the aim of this project is to make a management system that will be able manage all devices regardless of the manufacturers
Methodology / Approach
Conceptually, all IoT gateways have IP addresses (either private, public, IPv4 or IPv6 see here) which can be used to identify them on the network.
All IP addresses can respond to ping command (this can be used to determine the availability of the device)
For a complex IoT device that also utilize SNMP, the UpTime, port utilization, and other information can be derived from them also
Technologies Used
The project is currently being developed using C# (i.e. ASP.NET).
