# Automation Tree Rules
|
|
|
|
This section will describe **Tree Rules** in Cacti.
|
|
|
|
Tree rules allow Automation to bunch up devices based on matches
|
|
on rules we come up with you can say bunch all Cisco devices on to a Cisco tree.
|
|
Or if you have a site where all of the hostnames start with siteb you can
|
|
have a site b tree etc see below for some examples.
|
|
|
|
To get started you will need to create a Tree rule on the top right click the +
|
|
to start a new rule you are also able to duplicate rules to make it easier as well.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
We need a way to tell automation what device we are looking for
|
|
in the example above we are looking for a device with the hostname Linux
|
|
this is done via a REGEX any perl based REGEX can be used.
|
|
|
|
To test this REGEX on existing devices you can click the show eligible Objects
|
|
this will check the Devices currently in cacti for a match.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Once a device is a match it will be placed on the default tree.
|
|
To change which tree the device will be placed on simply select the tree name
|
|
from the dropdown list.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
We also have the option to auto create a tree based on our rule in this case a new tree
|
|
Named Linux will be created if it does not already exist.
