Planning rules

This section describes how to use planning rules to evaluate a plan.
Planning rules specify criteria for a plan evaluation. Rules are stored in the text file

Planning rules must follow a certain syntax and format.

device=bridge)”

and description = “valid IP addresses must be specified for all switches,
hubs and bridges”

and headline = “Valid IP must be specified/property validation”

and errormssg = “The device labeled {0} has invalid IP address”

and remedy = “Please specify a valid IP address”;
