🌐 Network Build Form - How To Guide

This form allows you to provision one or more network devices using Jinja templates and a serial-connected port. Each device can be configured with a unique set of template variables.


➕ Add a Device

Click + ADD A DEVICE to start configuring a network device.


Device Configuration

Field Description
Template Select a Jinja template to use for provisioning the device.
Port Choose the serial port the device is connected to (e.g., /dev/ttyUSB0).
Device Name This will display automatically based on the selected template or device type.

🧩 Template Variables

After selecting a template, the form will display a set of input fields specific to that template. These fields must be completed to render the final configuration for the device.

  • Variables are named according to the logic defined in the Jinja template.
  • All fields are required unless stated otherwise in your operational guidelines.
  • You may click HIDE VARIABLES to collapse this section after filling it out.

➖ Remove a Device

Use the trash icon next to a device block to remove that configuration from the build.

Once all devices and their variables are configured, click the BUILD button at the top of the form to begin the provisioning process.
