     fastcommon_id_generator_xxx, fastcommon_get_ifconfigs, fastcommon_get_sysinfo etc.

             tracker_server = ip2
          #include directive to include other ini file
          #@function directive for annotation
          #@set directive to set variables for condition of #@if directive
          support control statements for special purpose as:
              #@if, #@else, #@endif, #@for, #@endfor
