Ability to change paramters for multiple hosts at the same time

Hi everyone,

I m a beginner at using Foreman i already used puppet ... And my before 

i start connecting devices i need to know if with foreman dashboard can i
configure or change parameters for multiple machine ? If yes how can i do
it and how can i connect them to foreman ??

Please I really need help to start !!

Parameters can be set at a couple of different places and are hierarchical.

Organisation -> Location -> Domain -> subnet -> operating system -> host
group -> host

I suggest grouping the hosts via host groups and setting the parameter
there. Although one of the other might make more sense for you.

See the "Global parameters" section on
https://theforeman.org/manuals/1.15/index.html

Hi thank you so much guys for your answers …but is it necessary to have
the puppet agent that turned on the hosts before changing parameters on
host group ?

Also, if these are global parameters ( as Sean described) you can bulk
select the hosts and change their value in one action. goto Hosts, select
the hosts you want and then click on the Select Action / Edit Parameters.
