Importing/exporting templates
As graph, host, and data templates become very complex and are most of the time, crafted to fit a specific device type, Cacti offers the ability to export and share these templates with the community, as well as importing existing templates.
This really eases the administrative tasks for creating these templates! So let's see how you can import and export these templates.
