I have my Synology as a UPS NUT Server. PFSense is a slave. I have a custom script running on my Synology that actually shuts it down when it loses power rather than just puts it to sleep, so Synology won't actually fire the command to shut PfSense down. I've configured PFSense as a slave and I can see the UPS stats. What's the easiest way to just send a "-shutdown -h" command 90 seconds after PFSense detects that it's on UPS power?

@niloc1234 NUT, including the master/slave relationship, is designed around LB (Low Battery) management. You would either need your custom Synology stuff to wait for LB before taking action, or you would have to send a FSD (Forced ShutDown) to manage your own shut down of the slaves.
NUT is probably one of the most over and/or incorrectly configured systems in existence. Unless someone really understands what they are doing with NUT, I generally recommend that they leave it alone to do its job as designed.
