Port Schedule Custom?

[NolanHerring]

Hey guys,

Looking for a way to disable a port and re-enable it after a minute or two, on weekly basis, to reboot an access point.

I was hoping to find a way to do this via port scheduling but it looks like they only allow 30 minute intervals at the smallest time frame.  I don't want the AP down for 30 minutes, just need to reboot it automatically and this was the only clever way I could come up with.

Any ideas?

Disable and enable the switchport via api and link the script to cron job?

+1 to using the API.

Second option; buy an extra AP for the area so they have substantially overlapping coverage, and turn one off for 30 minutes and then the other at a different time.

Third option; power the AP using a PoE injector or power cube, and get a manual on/off timer power point.
