Thanks for the quick response; but that creates an named alias eth1:4000

It should become eth1.4000:${SVRNAME}

eg: interface eth1.802.1Q tag 4000:NAMED ALIAS

In my opinion this will make things more complicated than needed: A config file with comments containing examples say a thousand words and give the user a head start with his first install. The configuration tree (without examples) will cause for a steep learning curve; it takes time to find your way around the tree.
