The functions to export a selected trunk's setting to a template are not enabled by default.

Restart IP Office Manager.

1.In Admin Tasks, select Trunks | SIP Trunk Administration.

2.In the SIP Trunk Setup table select the row representing the trunk you want to export as a template.

3.Click on the button at the left hand of a trunk to select it.  Then right-click and select icon sip export Generate SIP Trunk Template. Alternatively, click on the icon sip export Generate SIP Trunk Template icon top-right.

4.The SIP trunks settings are shown. Note that this includes settings not supported by Basic Edition systems but included as standard in IP Office SIP trunk templates.
