[rancid] Re: Rancid Ignore Devices

[Sam Munzani]

Not always the case. Some times you want them in router.db but flag them 
to down state because you know the device is going through maintenance 
and will not be reachable for some time.

I usually do following
# router.db content
device-x:cisco:up
device-y:cisco:down   # this will be excluded from backup.

Hope this helps,
Sam
