Hi Justin, As far as I know, each host/device in the network needs to be defined seperate. Maybe you can break it up into seperate files, for customers/networks?

Hi Everyone, I was never able to resolve this question I initially asked some 18 months ago. Is there any way to define multiple hosts in a single stanza? I currently have a 600 line long file with handsful of 50+ definitions like: define host { use host0 host_name x parents y } It seems to me, that it "should" be allowed to define all the hosts with the same parent (etc) in one stanza, rather than having 10 stanzas for that. That would reduce duplicated information, make the config file 5x shorter and comparably more maintainable. Is there really no implemented mechanism to defining multiple hosts having identical information without using a separate stanza for each?
