Using Sensor Net Connect in SNMP

Welcome and thank you for choosing Sensor Net Connect for monitoring your equipment via SNMP. This guide will walk you through the steps to configure and integrate your Sensor Net Connect device into your network infrastructure.

Download and install Microchip Ethernet Discoverer

First, you need to find the IP address that has been assigned to your Sensor Net Connect. To do so, follow these steps:

  1. Download the software Microchip Ethernet Discoverer.
  2. Run the program on a computer connected to the same network as your Sensor Net Connect.
  3. Locate your Sensor Net Connect in the list of detected devices. Its IP address will be displayed in the corresponding column.

Access the Sensor Net Connect web interface

Once the IP address has been retrieved, you can access the device’s configuration interface.

Open a web browser and enter the IP address of the Sensor Net Connect in the address bar.

  1. You will be prompted to enter a username and password. Use the following credentials:
    • Username: admin

IP Address Configuration

You now have access to the Sensor Net Connect management interface. You can choose to modify the IP address and set it to a fixed (static) address for easier network management.

  1. In the web interface menu, click on System Configuration.
  2. Locate the section related to network settings.
  3. You can choose to set a static IP address by entering your preferred settings (IP address, subnet mask, gateway, etc.).

SNMP Integration

Your Sensor Net Connect is now ready to work with your SNMP infrastructure. You can integrate the device into your monitoring system by using the information provided by the device (OID, MIB, etc.) to start monitoring connected sensors.

Sensor Identification in the MIB file:

  • Temperature sensors are identified as owDS18B20 in the MIB file.
  • Temperature and humidity sensors are identified as owEDS0065.
