      @NeVaR There is an issue in NUT in the current version of nut-devel in pfSense's copy of the FreeBSD repo. It is fixed upstream, and hopefully will be fixed in the pfSense copy soon.

      As an aside, I would recommend that you move the primary to pfSense rather than the Synology. As noted above, running the Synology as primary is not best practice.

      Unfortunately, synology dsm 6.2 has limited support as nut client. I will try with another UPS

        It's been a while, but DSM 6 had support for remote NUT. They don't document anything but connecting to another Synology ("Synology UPS server"), but as long as you use the required values for ups name, user name and user password, it works fine.

          I think I am experiencing the same issue, as I outlined here https://forum.netgate.com/topic/185262/sg5100-shutting-down-unexpectedly

          I get the following system log entries
          1dc15621-d6ea-47d5-9005-bb3c26754052-image.png

          I am running pfSense as the primary, with two Synology-s as secondary units (slaves?)

          I guess I just have to wait for the package to be updated on pfSense?

            @pfguy2018 If you look in the NUT support thread, you will find executables you can use in the interim.
