DC Templates
What it does
DC Templates package a reference design — topology, BoM, runbook, and pricing — into a reusable solution. Admins author and publish; members instantiate them into their own workspace and customise.
Required inputs (admin authoring)
- Name and slug
- Summary and audience (e.g. enterprise, service provider)
- Tags
- Status — draft / published
- Pricing — base price (cents) and currency
- Payload (JSON) — template body: nodes, links, parameters, BoM
Required inputs (member use)
- A published template to start from
- Optional parameter overrides (e.g. server count, fabric size)
Example output
`` Template "Leaf-Spine 4x96" v3 published Audience: enterprise Price: $0.00 USD (free reference) Payload: 2 spines, 4 leaves, EVPN-VXLAN, /32 loopbacks ``
Versions are auto-snapshotted on every meaningful edit, identical to topology versioning.
