Creating Operational Template from reference

Modular Systems

Prerequisites

Before creating Operational Template, ensure that you complete the following tasks:

• Discover a Modular System by using the Discovery feature. For information about discovering Modular Systems, see Discovering

Modular System using manual discovery.

• If you are not using the default update source, and then create an update source. For more information, see Creating update source.

About this task

You can create an Operational Template by capturing the conguration of the reference Modular Systems. After capturing the

conguration, you can directly save the template, or edit the attributes for update source and hardware conguration as per your

requirement. Now you can save the template, that can be used to congure other Modular Systems of the same model.

NOTE

: If you want to congure Active Directory (AD) users on other MX7000 devices ensure that you create an Operational

Template from an MX7000 Modular System where all the AD users are congured.

NOTE: User account’s passwords are not captured in Operational Template, from reference Modular System for security reasons.

Edit the Operational Template to add a new user account and password, and then apply the Operational Template on the

managed Modular Systems. Else, you can apply the Operational Template without any changes to user accounts, and the same

passwords that are used in the reference Modular System are applied on the managed Modular System.

Steps

1 In OMIMSSC, do any of the following to open an Operational Template:

• In the OMIMSSC dashboard, click Create Operational Template.

• In the navigation pane, click Proles > Operational Template, and then click Create.

The Operational Template wizard is displayed.

2 Enter a name and description for the template.

3 In Device Components, click a component to view the available attributes and their values.

The components are as follows:

• Firmware update

• Management Module Embedded

NOTE

: Ensure that the Web Server attribute is enabled. If this component is not enabled, and then the MX7000

Modular Systems cannot be accessed through OMIMSSC after deploying the Operational Template.

NOTE: For SNMP Conguration and Syslog Conguration, ensure that you select all four congurations

available in each attribute, to apply them on managed devices.

4 Use the horizontal scroll bar to locate a component. Select the component, expand a group, and then edit its attribute values. Use the

vertical scroll bar to edit a groups and attributes of a component.

5 Select the check box against each component, because, the congurations of selected components are applied on the managed

device, when the

Operational Template is applied. However, all the congurations from the reference device are captured and saved in

the template.

6 To save the prole, click Finish.
