I agree, I just save to modems, I don't use templates either, mostly because 3com never did a good job of explaining them. Brian On Wed, 1 Mar 2000, Jeff Mcadams wrote:

I don't use templates, so this is somewhat problematic. Even if I did use templates, I'm not sure how you go about copying a template to the modem automatically when it boots. What do template users do?
I must say...I've never seen the usefulness of templates, nor figured out how they were intended to be used. I've always just set the modems and saved the modem config to NVRAM. Fortunately, or unfortunately, I've never really made use of some of the more advanced features of the DSPs, (being more of an IP type of person...I don't like to muck with modems if I can avoid it) so this has been sufficient for what I've worked with.
It would be nice to get a good explanation of how templates work, how they were intended to be used, and what benefit they would present if they were used in a typical ISP environment (since most of us here are ISPs I believe with a smattering of others).
Sorry to respond to your question without answering it, but I figured it might be useful to broaden out the question a bit. :) -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456
