https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremeswitching-eos/scheduling-poe-port-disable-enable-without-ridgeline-in-eos/m-p/121708#M2644 <P>Hello everyone,<BR />I’m looking for a way to automate disabling and re-enabling PoE (inline power) on specific ports in EOS, ideally on a scheduled basis (e.g., nightly reboot of a connected device). I’m aware that commands like disable inline-power port X and enable inline-power port X can achieve this manually, but I’m trying to find a way to schedule this without relying on Ridgeline.<BR /><BR />Is there a built-in scheduler or scripting capability within EOS that allows timed execution of such commands? Alternatively, would using an external script (SSH with cron or task scheduler) be the recommended approach?<BR /><BR />In environments with multiple configurations (similar to managing options in a <A href="https://sonic-menu-guide.com/" target="_self"><STRONG>sonic menu</STRONG></A>), having flexible automation is really helpful. I’d appreciate any suggestions or best practices others have used for this scenario.</P> Fri, 01 May 2026 02:58:44 GMT chris88 2026-05-01T02:58:44Z https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremeswitching-eos/scheduling-poe-port-disable-enable-without-ridgeline-in-eos/m-p/121708#M2644 <P>Hello everyone,<BR />I’m looking for a way to automate disabling and re-enabling PoE (inline power) on specific ports in EOS, ideally on a scheduled basis (e.g., nightly reboot of a connected device).
