After a configuration template is bound with a site, when a device goes online for the first time at the site, the device will automatically obtain the configuration preset in the template, and complete the initial configuration1.

Device Type: (Required) Select the type of device to which the CLI command set is to be delivered.The options include AC, AP, Switch, Gateway, and Router. You can select only one of them
Device Model: (Required) Select the model of the devices, to which the CLI command set is to be delivered. Select a device model from the drop-down list. Multiple models can be selected.
SN: (Optional) Select an existing SN from the drop-down list. If an SN is selected, the command set will be delivered only to the device matching the SN. If no SN is selected, the command set will be delivered based on the selected device model.
Delivery Mode: (Required) APs do not support the delivery mode of Replace All Config via config.txt.In Deliver Increment via CLI mode, the device incrementally executes the customized CLI command set based on the existing configuration. This mode is applicable to scenarios requiring certain incremental configurations. In Replace All Config via config.txt mode, the device configuration fileconfig.txt is directly replaced. Then, the device automatically restarts to make the configuration effective.This mode is applicable to the following scenarios: Scenarios where the entire device configuration needs to be replaced and Scenarios where incremental configuration cannot meet the requirements. For example, incrementalconfiguration will cause network path change (device disconnection) Scenarios where various interactions and command conversions are involved (causing interaction andcommand identification timeout)
CLI Command Set: (Required) Enter the CLI command set customized for the device.
Description: (Optional) Enter a description of the command set. It can be used as a remark.
