Hello there. I forgot I posted about this. Here is a quick guide.
You must disable this script when uploading firmware updates to the cameras. You could brick a camera if BlueIris power cycles a port when the camera is busy updating.
I use a command line tool called "SnmpSet" from ezfive.com/snmpsoft-tools/snmp-set/ I am using this on my private NVR. Review the license requirements before use.
This guide does not cover the configuration within the HP switch. You must login to the switch and enable SNMP. The SNMP write community string is set to "private"
1) Place snmpset.exe in C:\Blueiris
2) Place Reboot-Camera.bat in C:\Blueiris (See the end for the contents of Reboot-Camera.bat)
3) In the "Watchdog" tab of a camera. Define the settings circled. Then click "On loss of signal"
4) Click the + sign, click "Run a program or script"
5) Use the settings below. In this example, "17" is port 17 on the HP ProCurve. That's it.
The script will make a log file called "CameraReset.txt" Example contents:
Port 21 was power-cycled on Fri_12_06_2019_195621_39
Port 24 was power-cycled on Fri_12_06_2019_195621_43
Port 24 was power-cycled on Fri_01_31_2020__23838_90
Port 21 was power-cycled on Fri_01_31_2020__71657_17
Port 23 was power-cycled on Tue_03_10_2020__80534_91
Reboot-Camera.bat In the example below, the switch's IP address is 192.168.50.2 The write/private community string is named "private"
