You might want to reduce the values to either:
- RDBMS-like lines/rows for easy comparison with sort and comm, and then write a tool to turn them into configuration files or scripts to reinstall the configuration. If you want to change some parameters, modify the file and then feed the lines to the tool. Each line/row might have one value after its description. The storge of a value that appears many places in one cell means generated files are mutually consistent.
- Write a shadow subtree of host-dirs/files: configuration files or scripts to reinstall the configuration. You can then diff -r saved subtrees with new subtrees.
This way, you can easily detect a changed configuration, and restore it.

llc2_autoconfig
llc2_autoconfig(1) User Commands llc2_autoconfig(1)
NAME
llc2_autoconfig - generate LLC2 configuration files
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/llc2/llc2_autoconfig [-f]
DESCRIPTION
The llc2_autoconfig utility is used to generate LLC2 configuration files (/etc/llc2/default/llc2.*). If there is no configuration file in
/etc/llc2_default/, it detects all the available interfaces in the system and generates corresponding default configuration files.
If there are existing configuration files in /etc/llc2_default/, it will check if those interfaces defined in the files still exist. If
they do not exist in the system, it will set llc2_on in those files to 0. After this, it will detect if there are new interfaces in the
system. If there are, it will generate configuration files for them.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-f Erases all configuration files in /etc/llc2/default/. Then detects all the available interfaces in the system and generates cor-
responding default configuration files. Use this option with caution.
FILES
/etc/llc2/default/llc2.* LLC2 configuration files
