I had a phone call with Arnaud regarding this topic.

The idea so far is to do an initial scan scan of the network with:
 - nut-scanner if avalaible or
 - a nmap scan on port 3493 to identify nut daemon

Once the network scan is done we should:
 - use upsc to collect the information or
 - if upsc is not installed, use a telnet like connection to get the same result

For local inventory, we should do an "upsc -l" to identify devices and
then do an upsc $device and send back the information.

On the GLPI side, when we have UPS information, we should add a new
tab on the devices  to display the information:
 - the list of the USB UPS and there status
 - or for a standalone device, just the status

Some example provided by Arnaud of information returned for a given device:
