Can SS reboot a camera remotely?

If a POE camera goes offline when I’m away from home does SS have the ability to reboot it?

Thanks

    Unfortunately not - there is no standard way to send a "reboot" message to the camera. And, if it's really offline, it wouldn't receive the message anyway.

    Is your switch managed (i.e. does it have a web interface)? If so, it may be possible to turn off PoE to the camera via this interface in order to reboot the camera perhaps.

    The camera I’m anticipating would be connected over Powerline with a POE injector so wouldn’t be directly wired to the POE switch
