OpenWRT use UCI, which seems to generate configuration files (including those
for NUT) from a unified configuration syntax.

Thanks for the reply.

My OpenWRT version is Barrier Breaker with 3.10.4 kernel.

The big problem is that OpenWRT doesn't recognize the UPS, nothing
with "dmesg" and "lsusb". In a Debian server I got this:

# lsusb
...
Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0665:5161 Cypress Semiconductor USB to Serial

# dmesg
...
[181041.636190] usb 4-4: new low-speed USB device number 2 using ohci_hcd

USB drives works well in OpenWRT, it recognize well.

Thanks for your help.

Regards.
