My customer has numerous Networks, all provisioned and maintained via Network Templates. There are configurable items within a Network, some of which are hidden when a Network is maintained by a Network Template, and some that are not hidden. An example of a configurable item that is not hidden would be the VLAN tag on a switchport. When we change the VLAN tag on a switchport, the association of Network to Network Template is not affected. If we now make an unrelated change to the Network Template, what change gets cascaded to the Networks being maintained by that Network Template? Is it only the change that has been made to the Network Template, which means we would retain the change of VLAN tag on the switchport, or is the Network Template in its entirety reapplied to the Network, which means we would lose the change of VLAN tag on the switchport?
