Configuration Management Template Library (SETTINGS > Configuration Management > Template Library) enables you to standardize and reuse template device configurations. You can embed templates with tokens that use a variable syntax grammar to ensure alignment of device configurations throughout your application, enterprise, or network-wide infrastructure.
The variable syntax enables you to apply device-specific (IP address, hostname) information, save time, and reduce the possibility of incidents or errors occurring on production systems due to mis-alignment or restart with non-standard configurations.
Please see the Custom Script Language Guide for additional detail.
Note: There are no default, pre-configured templates. This topic outlines the steps
for creating templates and generating configurations from your managed devices.
Template library enables the following:
- Capture and add device configurations to the library.
- Apply templates to devices.
- Import and Export templates.
- Delete, copy, and manage template records.
