<h1>Virtual Host Templates</h1><section class="ls-spacer-small-bottom">Virtual host templates make it easy to create many new virtual
hosts with similar configurations.
Each template contains a template configuration file, a list of mapped listeners,
and a list of member virtual hosts.
To add a template-based virtual host, the administrator only needs to
add a member with a unique virtual host name and a
qualified domain name to the template member list.
Listener-to-virtual host mapping will be added automatically for
all listeners in the template's mapped listener list.
Later on, if you need to customize the configuration for a particular
virtual host, just "instantiate" that member virtual host and a
standalone virtual host configuration will be created automatically.
Even when setting up a customized virtual host,
a template can still be a convenient starting point.</section>
