Does this work on UDM-SE to powercycle PoE?

[markusd1984]

Is it possible to use same or similar on UDM-SE to powercycle PoE on a schedule?

I just came across this tool myself and found some terms a bit confusing (--host TEXT = The URL of the unifi controller). But is works.

# Install with pipx
pipx install git+https://github.com/ep1cman/unifi_poe

# Power cycle port labeled as 2 on UDM-SE
unifi_poe \
 --host my_udm_ip \
 --username local_user \
 --controller_type udm \
 --switch-mac aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff \
 --switch-port 2 cycle

One side effect I have in my setup is that I lose the connect to the UDM on a completely unrelated switch which I have to restart by myself. But it's late now and I will have to figure it out later.

To make it work on a schedule you will have to use something like cron / systemd timers or something appropriate in a programming or scripting language.

Edit: And you should use a local account, because the script can't handle MFA.
