Introduction
The HP UPS Management Module enables you to monitor, manage, and control power environments of
up to five devices through the serial connectors located on the front of the management module. Multiple
devices can monitor the UPS over the network connection. The management module can be configured to
send alert traps to HP Systems Insight Manager and other SNMP management programs or used as a
stand-alone management system.
For configuration and status monitoring, the management module includes:
•
HP UPS Management Module web interface (on page

)—A graphical interface that is accessed
with a web browser
•
HP UPS Management Module Service Menu (on page
78
)—A text-based menu that is accessed
through telnet or a terminal emulation session
