Here you can give it a name, a short description and link it to a page template.
You can decide if you want to create a new page template or use an existing one. When choosing the first option, the created template will have the title and the description of the Content Category. In case you go for the second option the name and the description of the selected template will be updated to match your Content Category title and its description. This way, you and your users can easily find the template belonging to this Content Category when creating a new page. You can configure a Display Metadata macro in the linked page template with certain Metadata fields options. Once you create a new page and assign the Content Category configuration from the templates, you can only see the configured options as per the template in the Display Metadata macro.

More information on this topic can be found in Assign a Content Category and Metadata to an existing page.
