Tripp Lite Releases PowerAlert

Tripp Lite Releases PowerAlert

Tripp Lite, a world-leading manufacturer of power protection equipment, has developed a completely open-source UPS software called PowerAlert. The software is designed to help individual-end users and enterprise-level IT managers maximize their system efficiency.
PowerAlert Network Management System allows network managers to monitor and control up to 250 UPS systems and power distribution units (PDUs) through a single interface.  PowerAlert Local allows end users to monitor and control UPS systems connected to a host computer through a USB or serial cable. It also includes an SNMP agent that allows UPS systems to be discovered and managed by PowerAlert Network Management System or a third-party network management system. PowerAlert Network Shutdown Agent allows the host computer to monitor a designated PowerAlert Local client or SNMPWEBCARD accessory over the network. When a selected power event is detected, the host computer automatically hibernates or shuts down after a user-specified delay. It’s ideal for computers that have restricted system resources or cannot connect to a UPS system through a USB or serial cable.
