Others pointed you to the compatibility guide and net-snmp and that is good advice. Network in Network UPS Tools to me means that you can have one computer monitor a UPS and have other computers (that are plugged in also) do controlled shutdown. While NUT does support SNMP, the scope is "any UPS that has a way to report status, that anybody has figured out and made to work". A lot of them are serial and USB, but there is SNMP. _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@alioth-lists.debian.net https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
