+## Site provisioning script
+
+Contributed by @smos
+
+This directory contains an example provisioning script to create a large number of sites with comparable network configurations. It sets the LAN config to site specific configuration. Copy the settings.template.php and config.template.php to their respective files for testing.
+This is meant as a basic provisioning only system. Currently used against controller 5.6.30.
