Generate a new device template from an existing device

The new template has the same configuration as the device from which it is generated. You can generate a new device template from standalone and HA devices. However, if you generate a template from HA devices, the new template will not contain the failover configurations.

You can generate a new device template from a device that is registered with the Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center.
