.TH UPSD.CONF 5 "Mon Nov 30 2009" "" "Network UPS Tools (NUT)"

.SH NAME
|
|
upsd.conf \- Configuration for Network UPS Tools upsd
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
upsd uses this file to control access to the server and set some other
|
|
miscellaneous configuration values. This file contains details on
|
|
access controls, so keep it secure. Ideally, only the upsd process
|
|
should be able to read it.
|
|
|
|
.SH CONFIGURATION DIRECTIVES
|
|
|
|
.IP "MAXAGE \fIseconds\fR"
|
|
|
|
upsd usually allows a driver to stop responding for up to 15 seconds
|
|
before declaring the data "stale". If your driver takes a very long
|
|
time to process updates but is otherwise operational, you can use MAXAGE
|
|
to make upsd wait longer.
|
|
|
|
Most users should leave this at the default value.
|
|
|
|
.IP "STATEPATH \fIpath\fR"
|
|
|
|
Tell upsd to look for the driver state sockets in \fIpath\fR rather
|
|
than the default that was compiled into the program.
|
|
|
|
.IP "LISTEN \fIinterface\fR \fIport\fR"
|
|
|
|
Bind a listening port to the interface specified by its Internet
|
|
address. This may be useful on hosts with multiple interfaces.
|
|
You should not rely exclusively on this for security, as it can be
|
|
subverted on many systems.
|
|
|
|
Listen on TCP port \fIport\fR instead of the default value which was
|
|
compiled into the code. This overrides any value you may have set
|
|
with 'configure \-\-with\-port'. If you don't change it with configure
|
|
or this value, upsd will listen on port 3493 for this interface.
|
|
|
|
Multiple LISTEN addresses may be specified. The default is to bind to
|
|
127.0.0.1 if no LISTEN addresses are specified (and ::1 if IPv6 support is
|
|
compiled in).
|
|
|
|
.IP
|
|
.nf
|
|
LISTEN 127.0.0.1
|
|
LISTEN 192.168.50.1
|
|
LISTEN ::1
|
|
LISTEN 2001:0db8:1234:08d3:1319:8a2e:0370:7344
|
|
.fi
|
|
.LP
|
|
|
|
This parameter will only be read at startup. You'll need to restart
|
|
(rather than reload) upsd to apply any changes made here.
|
|
|
|
.SH UPGRADING FROM OLDER VERSIONS
|
|
|
|
The ACL/ACCEPT/REJECT mechanism that existed in versions before
|
|
nut-2.4.0 has been removed. You'll want to use the LISTEN directive
|
|
to limit the addresses the server listens at on multihomed systems.
|
|
If this is not fine grained enough, use a firewall.
