7. IVMS generates the IPsec VPN deployment task, and the task is synchronized to BIMS.

the headquarters) and the CPEs (at the branches).
9. The operator views the execution results of the task in BIMS.
For more information, see H3C IMC IPsec VPN Manager System Administrator Guide.
Example 5: Using CPE additional information
The additional information function is a flexible tool that helps you customize various information for
marking a CPE device. Additional information can be used as a variable in the configuration template.
That is, if the content of a configuration template contains a variable whose name is the same as the
variable name of a CPE additional information entry, when deploying the configuration template BIMS
automatically sets the value of the variable to the default value specified in the additional information.
This is a typical application of CPE additional information, as described in the following example.
Scenario description
As a network administrator, you are assigned to configure an additional information entry called
"Location" for identifying the location of CPEs. In addition, you must customize a running configuration
segment containing the variable corresponding to the additional information "Location," which will be
used to configure the CPEs located in the headquarters and Branch A of the company.
Task analysis
To execute this scenario, perform the following tasks:
1. Add the additional information entry "Location."
2. Customize a configuration segment for the variable corresponding to the additional information
"Location."
3. Create a deployment task to deploy the configuration segment to all CPEs located in headquarters
and in Branch A of the company.
