You can target specific configuration changes to the parameters in Configuration Manager. You can then use a global parameter work order to apply these changes across a group of targeted devices that must have the same software version and hardware platform.

In any configuration, there are parameters that can apply equally to all targeted devices, and parameters such as hostnames, IP addresses, and so on that are unique to each device. To apply a configuration to multiple targeted devices and still be able to do the type of individual parameter changes that are required for individual devices, you must configure global parameters in the configuration. You can either add global parameters to an existing configuration schema (supported by OCSEM) that has empty configuration elements, or manually upload a configuration schema file from a device that is populated with parameters.

After you are finished the tasks in this chapter, see the View Work Order Information chapter to view information for the work order(s) you configured.
