Cisco VLAN Script to shut down ports
Hi,
We have POE Access Points, we have to reboot them from time to time manually, the AP's don't have a way to reboot by themselves. Is there any command that I can schedule to shut down and bring up ports on a schedule basis on Cisco switches layer2 or layer3?
Please advise
You can try the following. I haven't every thought about doing this but I did find this:
https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/docs/DOC-24145 Schedule Recurring Execution Commands.
Two alternatives for you on this...
If you use Solarwinds NCM, you can schedule Jobs to run scripts at timed intervals or based on events.
Using Putty, you can use it's command line option to connect to a Telent/ssh session and run a script. This can be triggered with Task Scheduler.

This is a great recommendation. I hate to say this. I always forget there's easier ways to do the things than my way! :)
Just watched CCNP Routing and Switching - TSHOOT video 5
Talks about EEM, If your switch supports EEM than you should be able to make an applet for exactly what you want using the cron timer.
