A. Yes, ordering of elements is important in a Spec file. The elements should be in the same order as the order in which they appear in CLI, from left to right and top to bottom. Q. I am not sure where I am allowed to use dynamic option of . A. Yes, you can use the dynamic option for looping data structures where multiple instances are possible for a particular data model. For example, in the output of show interfaces or show interface stats IOS commands, the data model will be repeated for each interface instance. The structure of data (interface details) will remain same. Only the values for the data elements (that is, the properties) will vary. Instead of repeating the same data model multiple times (where the number of repetition is also unknown), you can define a single data model and mark it dynamic for repeated occurrences of the same model. This is a looped data model, where the loop will be run for each instance.
