The ZIP file contains the configuration template file (Jinja template language), Yang model file (schema for the configuration), and the Viewdef file (configuration of the UI).

    The Configuration Templates page appears.

  2. Select a configuration template from the list and click More > Export.

        The template is automatically upgraded to CSO Release 5.3.0 and the Configuration Templates page appears.
