Organizing configuration templates

IMC offers you the ability to create as many configuration templates as needed to manage the ongoing
task of network device configuration management. With the ability to create whole configuration files

and sections of a configuration file called segments, you can easily create hundreds of configuration

files.
You can create folders to organize configuration templates. Template configuration folders work exactly
the same way as folder or directories in file systems, meaning you can create folders at the root level and

nested within folders. You can also add templates at the root level and in subfolders. Ideas for template

organization include grouping templates by device type, location, device function, just to name a few.
Template configuration subfolders are accessed by selecting the parent folder in the same way that
subdirectories are accessed by double clicking on the parent directory.
