add a host with predefined devices into DVG. The templates defines some basic features of the host (SNMP version, check this host, is this host activ). The devices are defined in a simmilar way.

Templates are stored in the directory $DVG_HOME/data/template/add_host/.
Empty lines or lines starting with '#' are ignored.
A template looks like following example:

      #!$DVG_HOME/bin/tool/add_host.pl
