Create Scenarios of management in somlar01

Question

hello all,
i need to create Scenarios of management with all compenant in solar01 , but i need to do it in automated way( like with BATCH-INPUT or SHDB )  from an EXCEL file.
please help.
thank you.

Ok..
Let the LAN of the CPE be 192.168.1.0/24
Let the WAN (towards PE) of the CPE be 10.10.10.0/24
Let the Loopback-if of the CPE be 172.16.1.1/32
- Create the MPLS-VPN for the customer
Create your 'company-VRF' on the PE-routers towards the CPE's
- Create another MPLS-VPN for your management
Create your 'mgmt-VRF' on the PE-router towards your own NOC
Now the trick is as follows:
On the customer VRF's at the PE-routers, you must use a export-map to match the loopback-addresses and alter the RT to match a RT which is imported into your mgmt-VRF.
Now you should have the routing for reaching the CPE's from the mgmt-VRF, but you still miss the return-router for the CPE's to reach the mgmt-VRF. You can either introduce these addresses from the central mgmt-vrf by exporting directly into the 'company-VRF' or you could import them on the PE-VRF's.
Here's an example:
'CPE' PE:
ip vrf customerA
rd 1:1
export map custA-map
route-target import 1:1
route-target import 99:99 ! Import the management net
route-target export 1:1
ip access-list standard mgmt-acl
permit 172.16.0.0 0.0.255.255
route-map custA-map permit 10
match ip address mgmt-acl
set extcommunity rt 1:99 ! export under a new route-target only for management
'mgmt' PE:
ip vrf mgmt
rd 99:99
route-target import 99:99
route-target import 1:99 ! Import management from customer A
route-target export 99:99
There are many variations on this, and gives different levels of control and therefore more or less need for detail-management..
The problem would then just be to get the MPLS-provider to implement this.. :)
