Fabric Leaf Interface Profile

Leaf Interface Profiles can either be auto-generated (one per leaf) by providing a naming convention, or can be system-generated (one per leaf), or can be defined explicitly. In case of auto-generated profiles the following placeholders can be used when defining the naming convention:

\\g<id>: gets replaced by the respective leaf node ID
\\g<name>: gets replaced by the respective leaf hostname
