Abstract
Techniques for improving options templates are described. The techniques may be performed at least in part by a network edge device and may include receiving, from a network collector device, a request for an options template download, the request indicating whether a full options template or partial options template are requested. Based at least in part on whether a full options template or a partial options template are requested, the method may also include, transmitting a response to the network collector device including a segment of the options template, wherein each segment includes a flag indicating whether the segment is a last segment of at least one more segment will follow. Finally, the method may include receiving from the collector device and in response to transmitting a segment having the flag indicating the segment is a last segment, an acknowledgement that the full options template has been received.
