Adding a ConX-SFP to the Wetatronics Portal

This guide walks you through creating a portal account, connecting your ConX-SFP device, and claiming it in the portal.


Step 1 — Create an account

Go to https://portal.wetatronics.com/ and click Create account, then follow the prompts.


Step 2 — Connect your ConX-SFP to the portal

Log in to the ConX-SFP CLI. Find its IP address via LLDP or your DHCP server.

Default credentials: username weta · password wetatronics

ssh weta@<ip-address>

Set the portal URL, enable auto-reconnect, save, and connect:

config portal url devices.wetatronics.com 443
config portal reconnect on
system save
portal connect

Note: The first portal connection takes 30–40 seconds.

Once connected, note the MAC address from the CLI:

weta@Wetatronics_0037> show status
System Status:
Model: ConX-SFP
Version: 1.1.351 - 15:11 06/04/26
Hostname: Wetatronics_0037
SSH Port: 22
MAC Address: 04:58:5d:00:00:37

⚠️ Keep this SSH session open — you’ll need it in the next step.


Step 3 — Claim the device in the portal

  1. Log in to the portal and click + Add Device.
  2. Enter the MAC address from above.
  3. Copy the claim code displayed in the portal and run it in the CLI:
portal claim BFGLYB

Your device will now appear in the portal.
