Greetings, I just finally got to the point where I've deployed a few combined networks and I've been comfortable with their configuration, so I decided to create a template (versus just copying from another network). Seemed pretty straight-forward until I noticed that the bound networks were all getting all the same VLAN addresses. I see I overlooked the Same/Unique pull-down. I change that and setup all the VLANs. However, upon saving the changes, I get the following "The first IP's host bits are not valid". I suspect that I have a bad config, but I don't know what that is. For this template, I need to account for at least 1000 networks (sites), with a need for more in the next few years.. Using the formula from the documentation, I tried several combinations to get 2 to the 10th (1024 subnets), but everything, so far, has given the same error. Each network uses 8 VLANs, with 7 being unique and 1 being the same. I have allocated a pool of 2540 networks per VLAN (i.e. data = 10.20.0.1-10.29.254.254, voice = 10.30.0.1-10.39.254.254, etc.). Also, as I have existing networks already in the field, if I bind them to a template, will they keep all their existing VLANs? In my initial testing, they didn't, but the VLANs were set to "same". Obviously, I have this ticket open because I can't make "unique" work for testing. Lastly, just to confirm, the point of the template binding is so that many common settings can be managed at one time, such as firewall, content filtering, and Wi-Fi settings. This is how this works, correct? I'm going to have probably 150 networks on one template and another 1200 on another. I appreciate any assistance provided. Thank you, Jeremy
