Switch to enable and disable Wifi networks of the UniFi controller

[MagoPoza]

I think a switch would be a good tool to be able to activate or deactivate a Wi-Fi network from the UniFi controller, being able to do it from Home Assistant without having to access the UniFi controller

I have a use-case for this as well. I need my wife to be easily able to pause/resume the wifi ssid for our foster kids.

I could then get a physical switch or a nfc tag setup to toggle this when I'm not home.

I would really like to see this too.

Yeah that would be cool

Although I would also really appreciate this feature, I'm adding a little side note: Sadly, whenever the configuration of a UniFi access point changes, it re-provisions. This causes all its networks to briefly suspend. So, toggling WiFi networks would only smoothly be possible, if only one network exists, or a roughly 30 sec total WiFi suspension is acceptable in your environment!

Without promising anything, I've more or less completed the refactoring and can soon start building out new features in the integration

Great news! @Kane610 any update on where this sits in the backlog? I have an additional use case for using this feature to toggle on/off a guest wifi and when I toggle guest mode in HA.
