Include Host
Configura-
tion Field
Has two functions: (1) shows you whether the selected template will
capture the host configuration, and (2) enables you to create templates that
will capture the host configuration.
To do the latter, select the template name; then click on the Yes button in
the Include Host Configuration field and save the template. Remember
that you can only capture the host configuration with a template. You
cannot capture the host configuration when you create configurations
manually.
ECM only displays the Include Host Configuration field if your device is
a Cisco router and the CISCO_MTYPES file includes your Cisco router’s
device type. See Special Features for Cisco Routers in Chapter 1 for more
details about the CISCO_MTYPES file.

Paste Button Places in the Template Detail scroll list a copy of whatever was last
