Systems and methods for managing sensor assignments in a thermal management system. In embodiments, a sensor network includes a plurality of sensors and a plurality of gateway devices, and managing sensor assignments includes assigning sensors to gateways based on sensor location in a coverage area, reassigning moved sensors to new gateway devices, and disconnecting sensors from previously assigned gateway devices to eliminate conflicting reports and erroneous sensor alters and alarms. In embodiments, managing sensor assignments includes polling gateway devices to identify dormant sensors and disconnecting dormant sensors from gateway devices. The system and methods may be implemented in a data center environment.
