Hi,
I have spent some time now on SD-WAN Viptela solution in a LAB environment, the SD-WAN fabric is up and running. The next step is to add a C1117 IOS-XE router for which all registration stuff has been successfully completed, the only thing left is creating templates for the C1117 router. I've created templates in vManage but wasn't able to successfully apply these to the router. There is a video posted on Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qugfIlEmSEM) were a conversion tool is being demonstrated which effectively converts CLI config into a vmanage templates based config. I've been looking for a link to this tool but haven't been able to find it yet.
Does anyone know if this tool still exists and is somewhere available?

Hi rudybril1,
I don't know when it will be supported unfortunately, however yesterday came out two releases with critical fixes for controllers and for vEdges/cEdges, and that device is not yet supported.
I know there's an image release of 19.2.1 for the end of october, maybe on that release that device will be supported, but for now I guess you'll just have to wait to be able to use it.

Hi rudybril1,
That tool is still available, unfortunately it's a Cisco internal tool, so it's not publicly available.
Anyway, what are you trying to acomplish with the template, having the configuration for CLI config, or have the device in vManage mode?
Is the device already online on the vManage, or do you need the initial System, Transport configurations for it to bring up control connections?
BTW you can see on this deployment guide https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/solutions/CVD/SDWAN/SD-WAN-End-to-End-Deployment-Guide.html the setup for both platforms, vEdge and cEdge.

Hi rudibryl1
To get your device online this CLI configuration should do the work:

Branch-03#show sdwan runn
Branch-03#show sdwan running-config

Now for the templates you'll need to create the same as for the vEdges, for the configuration above you'll need at least this to match the CLI config.
Any service VPN on that platform if you're going to use the switchport module you'll need also this:
With all these templates you'll should be able to bring any ISR1K under vManage mode.
Any issues post them here.

Hi rudybril1,
I see that your device is the one with LTE plus Mobility Express Wireless AP onboard.
For this kind of devices you'll need to add two feature templates on the device:
If this is not on the device template, the vManage will try to remove those interfaces and controllers and will then fail to attach the template.
Can you confirm that you have this features on the template?
And BTW that device even though you might have it on the vManage, which I don't know which version you're running, in the last release 19.2 for vManage and 16.12 for cEdge, that device model is not supported yet, and most likely this is why you're seeing those errors.
Best Regards,

Hi rudybril1,
You're right there's no mention to that device, it's because it is not supported in this release, next one is just around the corner.
For the device C1117-4PLTEEA you cannot see the Wlan-gigabitethernet as this device doesn't have WLAN AP onboard, the Part number of the device lets you know that, C1117-4P[4ports]LTE[4G support]EA[europe domain], if it was meant to support wireless you'll see the WE in the end of the PN - C1117-4PLTEEAWE.
That's why you don't see the WLAN_gig on that device.
As for the Cellular controller feature template, even though you might not be using LTE you need at least the controller otherwise the vManage will try yo delete that and that's an unsupported operation and it will fail the template attachment.
Thank you,
