Well I'm not near the config, but I remember it was easy. The default timings 
match APC's defaults, so all you really need to do is set the UPS name (for 
identification purposes) and the comm type will be snmp, port will be something 
like <hostname>:161:<community> and set an email address to send alerts to.

Testing is a little tricky as it dials directly in to the snmp interface, you 
could lower the "time on battery" and kick the plug on the ups and see if it 
initiates a safe shutdown, but that depends on how many other hosts are on the 
ups and if this host is in active production.

It has worked in my environment though.

Reading about that now, it sounds a lot cleaner then that silly java based one 
from APC. Can you elaborate on how you add it as a device into the UPS and 
share a config in this scenario?
Thanks!
