I am sorry Leonard, I thought you meant you have your UPS connected to the
console or aux port on you cisco switch, which you were monitoring through
there. IE: A method to save / avoid the Ethernet modules for the UPS.
Thanks,
Mike

Mike,
I use MRTG. You can pretty much graph anything that has an SNMP OID.
I get Battery Replacement Indicator, tells me whether or not a battery needs
replaced. Battery Status, last reason it transfered to battery, output
status,
battery temperature, battery capacity, line voltage, runtime remaining and
load on the ups. I can't get messages from MRTG about the UPS's, but it
really isn't necessary since the UPS's send e-mail when something goes
wrong.
But several times, I have been able to replace a battery or get the
electrical
lines fixed because of the graphs.
This is assuming you have the APC Management card installed in, or attached
to,
the UPS.
You can take a look at it here

Can you tell me how you monitor the UPS's connected to your switches? That
seems ingenious but I have never heard of doing that before.
Thanks,
Mike
