HP Power Protector is a web-based application that enables administrators to manage an HP UPS from a browser-based management console. Administrators can monitor, manage, and control a single UPS locally and remotely. A familiar browser interface provides secure access to Power Protector software anywhere on the network. Administrators may configure power failure settings and define UPS load segments for maximum uptime of critical servers. The UPS can also be configured to extend runtimes for critical devices during utility power failures. For most UPSs, the receptacles on the rear panel are divided into one or more groups, called load segments, which can be controlled independently. By shutting down a load segment that is connected to less critical equipment, the runtime for more critical equipment is extended, providing additional protection.
