Creating rotary Entries in the Configuration File
Each entry in the rotary section of the configuration file consists of a rotary name and a definition.
The syntax is:
rotary_name: [keyword] ports@location [; ports@location] ...
The rotary_name is the name of the rotary and must be followed by a colon (:). The maximum
length is 32 characters.
