How do I create a logical configuration deployment?

Important! A configuration template of the required role must be created before a deployment can be created.

Open the Deploy Logical Configuration form:

  2. Click png2.png CONFIGURATION DEPLOYMENT and choose Logical from the drop-down list.

    1. From Device Management, Configuration Templates, choose a logical template and click png1.png (Table row actions), Deploy to network.

      The form opens with the template already selected.

Add one or more templates if required:

  1. In the Deploy Logical Configuration form, click png2.png TEMPLATE

  2. Choose one or more templates from the templates list to add them to the Bin. You can use Shift-click to choose a range of templates.

Add one or more targets:

  4. To add additional targets, repeat the previous steps and click UPDATE.

If the template is flexible, the VIEW/EDIT TEMPLATE CONFIG button is available.

If the template is fixed, click the VIEW TEMPLATE CONFIG button for a read-only preview of the configuration parameters.
