Explanation

Define metadata variable values for each device: Preparing metadata variables (like branch ID, site IP, WAN gateway, etc.) in advance ensures smooth automation when deploying new branches, as FortiManager uses these variables to customize configurations automatically for Create model devices: Creating model devices in FortiManager allows predefinition of configuration templates and mappings, so when real devices connect, they automatically inherit their intended configuration - greatly simplifying large-scale SD-WAN onboarding.
