I make a folder for each physical site and populate the configs there. each configs I use is device family based (ie: All Cisco 7200's at one site are all in the SITE/7200 folder where all Cisco 350WGB's are in the SITE/350wgb folder) 

the global command is: _ (ie: WithPeak[_]: ymw) will make every WithPeak option ymw, as long as the target doesn't already have a WithPeak defined. Target based options (WithPeak[x.x.x.x_1] will over ride the WithPeak[_] option))

Hope this helps.

Can someone provide me with a little insight as to how they manage something similar to the following. I have 7 wire closest each with between 40 and 50 switches. I would like to generate configs for every switch which includes the following for every interface :

WithPeak[x.x.x.x_1]: ymw
XSize[x.x.x.x_1]: 250
Options[x.x.x.x_1]: growright

Additionally, when I pull the configs, instead of:

Traffic Analysis for 1  -- 
PageTop[x.x.x.x_1]: <H1>Traffic Analysis for 1 -- </H1>
<TR><TD>System:</TD>     <TD> in </TD></TR>

I would like to see:

Traffic Analysis for Port  1 
PageTop[x.x.x.x_1]: <H1>Traffic Analysis for Port 1</H1>
<TR><TD>System:</TD>     <TD> BayStack 450 - 24T </TD></TR>

If any of these options can be set globally for the config, this would be best case. If not, how can I configure them so it affects every interface, without having to manually enter them. 

Furthermore, will someone offer insight into how they have found managing this type of beast easiest.

Thank you for your time,

Brian A Sorrells
