Shutting Interfaces from Kron using Macros in Cisco IOS
You should be able to use kron and macros to be able to shut interfaces on a scheduled basis in Cisco IOS.
1. Make a macro to shut the interfaces (or perform other nested tasks)
1. Make a macro to shut the interfaces (or perform other nested tasks)
Router(config)# macro name macro_name1
Router(config)# interface Vlan1
Router(config-if)# shutdown
Router(config-if)# no shutdown @
2. Make a kron job to call the Cisco IOS macro.Router(config)# kron policy-list policy_name1
Router(config-kron-policy)# cli macro_name1
Router(config-kron-policy)# exit3. Next, create a kron occurrence, in which you tell the router when and how often you want to run this policy list (i.e., group of commands). Here's an example:
Router(config)# kron occurrence policy_name1 at 22:00 Mon recurring
Router(config-kron-occurrence)# policy-list policy_name1
Router(config-kron-occurrence)# exit

Schedule Kron with IOS
This does not work.
I have a Cisco 851W and the command "cli macro_name1" could not be executed.
Try in enable mode the command "macro_name1"
Does it work?
No, so this tutorial is useless

It can be done by EEM.
Router(config)#event manager applet shutdown-vlan1
Router(config-applet)#event timer cron name shutdown-vlan1-schedule cron-entry "0 22 * * *"
Router(config-applet)#action 01.0 cli command "enable"
Router(config-applet)#action 02.0 cli command "config t"
Router(config-applet)#action 03.0 cli command "interface vlan1"
Router(config-applet)#action 04.0 cli command "shutdown"
Router(config-applet)#action 05.0 cli command "no shutdown"
Router(config-applet)#action 06.0 syslog msg "vlan1 interface has been bounced"
Router(config-applet)#end
Router#
Router#sh even manager policy registered

This post is useless since you can not run macros using Kron..
