A Study of IoT Home Network Management System Using SNMP

Abstract

In the age of the fourth industrial revolution, IOT-based home network systems are becoming popular. However, a home network incorporating a large number of various devices has not yet established a standardized device and protocol, and a methodology for managing a home network has not yet been established. In this study, we propose a management method by dividing various devices of home network into IP based and non- IP based devices. In IP based wireless sensor network, Publish/Subscribe communication system is implemented based on MQTT protocol, and ZigBee based communication system and management method is implemented and tested in non-IP based wireless sensor network. Traditionally, the Internet has been managed via SNMP by connecting all devices based on IP addresses. A home network containing many non-IP devices must be managed with a variety of items that are not managed by existing SNMP. This study proposes SNMP + sensor management method including comprehensive method and item considering this point. This allows user to visualize the sensor status to monitor at all times and respond to sensor failures, providing a reliable home network management solution. © 2018 SERSC Australia.
