Important notices Before you add a new report, we ask you kindly to acknowledge the following:

• [x] I have read the contributing guide lines at https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md
• [x] I have searched the existing issues, open and closed, and I'm convinced that mine is new.
• [x] The title contains the plugin to which this issue belongs

Describe the bug A clear and concise description of what the bug is, including last known working version (if any). The NUT plugin is incomplete because of various reasons:

• opnsense shuts down instantly on power loss and does not wait for low battery
• no gui config of options either when ups is connected via usb or network as slave
• no documentation to configure via terminal in config files
• tried modifying files in /usr/local/etc/nut which is overwritten on next boot by /usr/local/opnsense/service/templates/OPNsense/Nut/

Expected behavior A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen. There should be settings via gui or terminal/config modifications that are persistent and documented as per NUT samples

Additional context Add any other context about the problem here. Multiple bug reports have been filed before, and they have been neglected:

• https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/issues/3855
• https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/issues/3646
• https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/issues/3259
• https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/issues/2724
• https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/issues/2009
• https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/issues/1936

Ignoring and bashing your community is not the approach I would expect this platform takes. Not everyone is a developer and there is a reason people come looking here for solutions.

Environment Software version used and hardware type if relevant. e.g.: Baremetal Versions OPNsense 24.7.4_1-amd64 FreeBSD 14.1-RELEASE-p4 OpenSSL 3.0.15
