Explanation

When a firewall administrator locally overrides a value that was originally pushed from a Panorama template, that local override takes precedence over future template pushes by default. To restore centralized control and eliminate local overrides, the administrator must push the template from Panorama and select the 'Force Template Values' option. This option instructs Panorama to overwrite any locally modified (overridden) settings with the authoritative values defined in the template, regardless of what is set locally on the firewall. A local commit (A) would not fix the override. A 'commit force' from the CLI (B) commits the local candidate config but does not remove overrides. A device-group push (D) applies policies/objects but not interface/network template settings.
