Deploying Templates
There are two steps to deploying configuration or monitoring templates:
1. 
Chose the template you want to deploy.
2. Specify the scope. After you have chosen the template to deploy, you need to determine which devices should be included in the deployment.
Specifying Template Deployment Options
After you publish a template and want to deploy it to one or many devices, you can specify devices, values, and scheduling information to tailor your deployment. Table 9-1 explains the deployment options.

Troubleshooting Template Deployment
The most common reasons that a template might not be deployed are:
•One or more devices are unreachable—Verify that the device credentials are correct; ping the device to verify that it is reachable. (See Getting Device Details Using the 360° View for more information.)
•A device CLI returned an error because the CLI was incorrect—Verify that the CLI commands contained in the template are correct by running the commands on a test device.
