First, please got to the `Dashboard` +and choose the `Define data fields` dashlet: + +![Dashboard - Define data fields](screenshot/director/14_fields-for-interfaces/141_define_datafields.png) + +Then create a new data field and select `Array` as its data type: + +![Define data field - Array](screenshot/director/14_fields-for-interfaces/142_add_datafield.png) + +Then create a new `Host template` (or use an existing one): + +![Define host template](screenshot/director/14_fields-for-interfaces/143_add_host_template.png) + +Now add your formerly created data field to your template: + +![Add field to template](screenshot/director/14_fields-for-interfaces/144_add_template_field.png) + +That's it, now you are ready to create your first corresponding host. Once +you add your formerly created template, a new form field for your custom +variable will show up: + +![Create host with given field](screenshot/director/14_fields-for-interfaces/145_create_host.png) + +Have a look at the config preview, it will show you how your `Array`-based +custom variable will look like once deployed: + +![Host config preview with Array](screenshot/director/14_fields-for-interfaces/146_config_preview.png) |
