One HPPP Administrator is needed for each UPS that is monitored, managed, and controlled by HPPP. The
server can be connected to the UPS through a serial port or USB port. Specific features of the HPPP
Administrator include:
• Controlling security and authentication, such as:
o Supporting multiple users and associating each login with specific device access (access categories
are regular user and administrator)
o Providing the option of SSL security
• Performing specified actions when alarms are set or cleared. The following unattended actions are
supported:
o Sending email notifications
o Executing system batch jobs during shutdown (on the HPPP Administrator or HPPP Client)
