Creating Operational Template from reference Modular Systems

Prerequisites

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

About this task

You can create an Operational Template by capturing the configuration of the reference Modular Systems. After capturing the configuration, you can directly save the template, or edit the attributes for update source and hardware configuration as per your requirement. Now you can save the template, that can be used to configure other Modular Systems of the same model.

NOTE: If you want to configure 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 configured.

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 Profiles > 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 Configuration and Syslog Configuration, ensure that you select all four configurations 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 configurations of selected components are applied on the managed device, when the Operational Template is applied. However, all the configurations from the reference device are captured and saved in the template.
  6. To save the profile, click Finish.
