CHAPTER 9
Template Management
This chapter describes the Provision Manager > Management screens you use to manage
device templates.
9.1 Device Template Management Overview
On the Vantage Access computer, a device template contains parameter settings of a device.
You can create new templates or load a template to devices.
Two types of templates are available: common and device specific templates.
• A common template file contains configuration settings that are the same across all
devices. This allows you to apply the same parameter settings to all devices. For example,
you can set the same system time and date on all devices.
• A device specific template contains parameter settings that are only for a specific device.
You cannot load the template to another device since a device-specific template file
contains device serial number and MAC address information.
9.2 Managing a Template
You can view all available templates, delete a template or modify template settings in the
Management screen. To display the screen, log into the Web Configurator using a manager
account and click the Provision Manager icon in the control panel. Then click Template >
Management.

After you have created a template file (using the Template > Save As Template screen), an
entry is created in the Management screen.
