@alexlmiller, thanks. I was hoping it would work right off the bat but understands this will not work due to "imports".
Thanks anyway, will look at those alternatives.

Thank you @alexlmiller - using your script with a UDM works perfectly; here is my Home Assistant switch:

switch:
  - platform: command_line
      switches:
        guest_wifi:
          command_on: >
              python3 /config/scripts/udm_wlan_control.py --wlan_id XXX --function enable
          command_off: >
              python3 /config/scripts/udm_wlan_control.py --wlan_id XXX --function disable
          command_state: >
              python3 /config/scripts/udm_wlan_control.py --wlan_id XXX --function status
          value_template: >
              {% if value == "SSID is ENABLED" %}
                  true
              {% else %}
                  false
              {% endif %}

@gulli1986 are you referring to my script, or @alexlmiller 's ?
Mine is working on 1.11.0 as far as I can see for a friend with a UDM Pro on 1.11.0
@alexlmiller 's python script is working for me on 1.11.0 on a UDM base

@rjcds I was having trouble with @alexlmiller 's python script and 1.11.0.
I switched to your script, it is now working fine with HA OS and unifi 1.11.0, thanks!
