A network packet switch provides access to a network-based computer system.
The switch has a computer-readable medium containing a computer program
product to produce management objects used to configure the switch. The
switch accepts an interface request from a user, determines attributes
associated with the user, establishes a request processor comprising
variables that are based on attributes of the user. The request processor
parses data files, based on the attributes associated with the user, to
construct a set of management objects.
