Using Configuration Templates

A Template Group is a collection of templates used to configure settings across multiple appliances.

n	IMPORTANT: Templates will REPLACE all settings on the appliance with the template settings unless the template has a MERGE option and that option is selected.

n	To edit a template, click the template label next to its checkbox.

n	You cannot save changes to the Default Template Group. To save the edits as a new template group, click Save As.

n	To apply templates to appliances selected in the tree, select the desired template checkbox(es) and click Apply Templates. A dialog appears, asking you to confirm your choices.

n	There is no permanent association between a template and an appliance - it's a one-time, one-way action.

n	When returning to the Templates page, the Template Group field defaults to showing the last template group viewed.

n	Unsaved changes display as an icon to the right of the template label.
