Creating a New Template
Overview
The ECM Templates view provides you with a list of attributes that you use to
create templates. Specifically, the attribute list includes all the readable/
writable and non shared attributes for the selected type of device.
When you use the template to capture a configuration, ECM captures the
values of the attributes specified in the template and includes the captured
attribute/value pairs in the new configuration. If available, ECM also captures
all instances of an attribute.
Procedure
To create a new template, follow these procedures (refer to Figure 3-7):
1. Open the Templates view by selecting Setup, Templates from the ECM
Main view menu bar.
2. In the Templates view, select the New button or File, New from the menu
bar.
The new template, named <UNTITLED>, appears highlighted in the
Template Name field and all the readable, writable, and non-shared
attributes for this device type (not just those of the specific device selected)
appear in the Insertable Attribute field.
