i have a pair of Smart-UPS C1500 SMC units with the smartconnect integrated NIC. both are online and i can ping. i cannot ssh, telnet or browse to the web interface. i reset using menu/mute buttons and they did reboot the NIC, one got a new IP. Both still pingable, still unable to remote in. How can i gain access?

Short Answer: You can’t
Long Answer: An APC UPS with a green RJ45 Smart Connect port can only communicate through their cloud hosted service. 🤦‍♂️
There is no local access via this Ethernet port. You may use the USB / Serial port via Power Chute / Other to connect locally.
