## 36. My UPS is directly connected to an appliance with a limited version of NUT, how can I monitor the UPS from arbitrary clients?

You can set up a separate general-purpose system as the NUT server for your "arbitrary clients", using `dummy-ups` in "relay mode" as the driver. This instance of `dummy-ups` would in turn be the NUT client allowed to interact with the appliance and that way with the UPS connected there.

### Note

The original question related to a NAS with NUT provided in its firmware OS, that only allowed one or few clients and not a whole rack’s worth of client IP addresses.
