UPS information to webpage

[Anonymous user]

Was wondering if anyone has automated the process of pulling load, time up, and name from the monitoring software to a web page.


Any example code in any language would be great, looking how to call or request information from the ups. Giving username password for login and pulling data back and if not in string format what type it will come back in.


Thanks,

Have a card and guess I just need to figure out the php snmp end of it.

Thanks for the push in the right direction, I'll leave the thread open and post the code when I put it together.

Brad,

Have you explored SNMP at all? You'd probably want to look into a Network Management Card if so. You could probably pull the OID's to an NMS which then converts it to a file and uploads it to a webpage on a rotation.

Like TNK said, SNMP is the way to go. PHP has built-in SNMP support which makes getting that information to a web page a snap:

I'd be interested in hearing about what you come up with.
