Can you cycle PoE power to a specific port?
The linked manual here makes no mention at all of PoE, so I can't tell if it's possible- via the management interface- to cycle power to a single specific PoE port. I'm wanting to do this to be able to reboot the device at the end of the PoE cable...
If you can't with this level of switch, which model would I need to move up to to get this capability...?
TIA for any enlightentment...

Hi tomlawton,
Welcome to our community! :)
As per checking, Prosafe Plus switches doesn't have the capability to enable/disable each port but the Smart Managed Pro Switches does. The PoE Port Configuration screen contains system PoE information for enabling PoE on the device, monitoring the current power usage, and enabling PoE traps. Go to System > PoE > Advanced > PoE Port Configuration.
Enable – Enable the Device Discovery protocol and provides power to the device using the PoE module. The Device Discovery Protocol enables the device to discover Powered Devices attached to the device interfaces and to learn their classification. This is the default setting.
Disable – Disable the Device Discovery protocol and stops the power supply to the device using the PoE module.
Regards,
