as the Nortel Router Switch 8600 Series - fka Passport 8600 - support is somewhat scant, I'd like to start a 'wishlist' for that special device.
Currently, DeviceExpert collects just the config file.
The device itself hast two config files:
Bootconfig - which contains basic device and i/o-options, like loading 3des-modules, enables/disables sshd and telnet and so on
Config itself - contains the device configuration like vlans, port settings...
As DeviceExpert supports two config files for the Cisco-Family (startup and running config), I'd like to ask if it would be possible to collect the information within the bootconfig in the startup config and store the normal config - like DeviceExpert aktually does - in the running config.
I understand that we're not the only customers who are useing the 8600-Series, so I would like to get some feedback of other users if they could agree with a solution in that manner and - of coures - the feedback of developers, if they could implement something like that in their templates.
