Abstract
In this paper, we present an integrated management system for WSNs (Wireless Sensor Networks). Each sink node of heterogeneous sensor networks is connected with a gateway. By supporting various hardware platforms and networking models, the gateway is able to collect management information from one or more WSNs and store it in a MIB (Management Information Base). The management system obtains management information from the MIB of the gateway by SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) and analyzes it. A manager can have access to the management system through the Web wherever the Internet is available and manage WSNs as well as sensor nodes. We implemented the proposed management system and our findings revealed the practicality of this system.
