Create Template (Collapsed)

You can create blueprint templates based on spineless topologies using the GUI.

To create a collapsed template from the Apstra GUI:

  1. From the left navigation menu, navigate to Design > Templates and click Create Template.
    The Create Template dialog opens (or the Clone Template dialog opens, as applicable).
  2. Enter a unique name (64 characters or fewer).
  3. Select COLLAPSED.
  4. Select applicable policies.
  5. Select a rack type from the drop-down list (only L3 collapsed rack types are available for selecting), then select the number of mesh links and their speeds. Notice that as you enter information, the topology preview on the right changes accordingly.
  6. Click Create.
The template is created and you're returned to the Templates table.

Next Steps: Create a blueprint from the template.
