Abstract
This document presents a modeling technique for configuring large scale devices in a compact way, when the device contains many similar data node patterns. A device here refers to any such entity that acts as a netconf server. This is realized by instructing the device to locally generate repetitive patterns of data nodes from a master copy called 'template' that is configured in the device. This approach is both convenient and efficient, as it minimizes the size of the running data store and reduces network provisioning time. It leverages existing YANG specification features and can be implemented with standard, off-the-shelf tools.The concept that is described in this draft does not aim to be a standard track document and does not cover the template solution that is currently being discussed within ietf netmod.
