IPsec tunnel templates

IPsec templates are used to standardize IPsec tunnel configurations for consistency and scalability. Templates may be applied to one or more individual devices, or device groups. Meta fields are used to facilitate the templates being assigned to multiple FortiGates, and the tunnel interfaces may be mapped to normalized interfaces to be used in firewall policies and SD-WAN configuration.
