Hello, I am using APC UPS symetra. Is UTM support to connect with UPS and shutdown it self when receive shutdown signal from UPS. For example from USB,serial or network.
Directly from the built-in help/admin guide:
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) devices maintain a continuous supply of electric power to connected equipment by supplying power from a separate source when utility power is not available. Sophos UTM supports UPS devices of the manufacturers MGE UPS Systems and APC. The communication between the UPS device and Sophos UTM is made via the USB
interface.
As soon as the UPS device runs in battery operation, a notification is sent to the administrator. If the power failure persists for a longer period and the voltage of the UPS device approximates a critical value, another message will be sent to the administrator—Sophos UTM will be shut down automatically.
Note – Please read the operation manual of the UPS device to connect the devices to Sophos UTM. UTM will recognize the UPS device when booting via the USB interface. Only boot Sophos UTM when you have connected the USB interfaces to each other.
