The info from "make search key=ups", along with a little more digging, reveals that 'nut' is probably the only one of these ports that will enable one box to listen to the UPS via the serial port, and then broadcast the UPS status info over TCP/IP for other boxes to listen and respond to. Does anyone else have this setup running?
