  2. Highlight a template and select Edit Template from the Options column.
  3. Complete the fields as described in Editing Templates

  4. For fields with the Variables icon associated with it, click the icon and select New Template Variable.

  5. Before applying the Template, you need to resolve the Variable values for devices to be applied. Refer Resolve Variable to know more information.

  6. Click View Template Details to view the saved configuration.
