19. Enter a description for the configuration template in the Description field.
Adding a description that uniquely identifies the function of the configuration template is a
valuable aid that supports the correct deployment of configuration templates. Consider using the
devices to which the template is applied and what the template contains, if using a segment
template type. For segment configuration templates, consider naming the template by the type of
function or commands contained within the template.
20. Modify the text in the Content field as needed.
21. If you are creating a segment template, delete all of the content that you do not want to apply to
devices when this configuration template is deployed to devices in the infrastructure.
Variables are supported in configuration templates. If you use variables in a configuration
template, you is prompted for the variable values when you deploy the configuration template.
The variable format is ${variable name}. For example ${ip address} is a valid variable where ip
address is used as the variable name. When you deploy the configuration template, ${ip address}
is replaced by the IP address you define.
Any blank spaces before or after variable names are omitted. For example, IMC converts
${ paramName } to ${paramName}. A variable name cannot include spaces ( ), dollars signs ($)
or curly braces ({}).
22. Click OK.
