The Config Snapshot Version screen is the place to review pushed configurations,
compare config snapshots with your configuration candidate, and load or restore
older configurations.
The version number of the configuration that was pushed.
The
Candidate
allows you to compare the currently pending configuration
changes to
Strata Cloud Manager
with a previous config version.
The configuration version number is incremental. For example, if you have
10 versions and restore configuration version 2, the configuration
version will change from 10 to 11 (it won’t show as 2).
Choose filters to sort and filter config versions by column.
Date and time the config was pushed.
Administrator who pushed the changes.
Administrator who made the configuration changes before they were pushed.
See how many objects were added, removed, or modified when the config was
pushed.
Devices that were targeted in the scope of the configuration push snapshot.
When performing a
Restore
action, you can choose which of the
devices to perform the operation on.
Devices that have been modified since the previous configuration push.
Devices are only considered to be impacted to the previous configuration push
snapshot.
Impacted and Target Devices
If you have two devices, A and B, and only push to device A, A becomes the
Target and Impacted device.
If you then push again to device A and B, A and B are both targeted devices,
but only B is an Impacted device.
When performing a
Load
action, the listed devices will be
impacted.
Review any information provided at the time the config was pushed.
Update the information in the snapshot table.
Clear all the filters to display all config versions.
See what has changed from version to version.
Only two versions can be compared at a time.
Restore
or
Load
a config
version.
Restore
– Restore an earlier configuration
version.
Restoring a configuration version directly updates the running
configuration on the deployments within the scope of the original push
and does not require you to
Push Config
.
Restore all the devices or deployments in the original scope of the
configuration push or select specific devices or deployments to restore.
You can’t expand the configuration to include devices or deployments
outside of the original scope.
Restoring a config version does not delete or modify the candidate
configuration. The configuration in progress will be saved. Restoring a
configuration just updates the running configuration version.
Deployments may appear out of sync when the restore action is used.
Load
– Load an earlier version as your candidate
configuration in
Strata Cloud Manager
. Your current candidate
configuration will be lost when an older configuration is loaded.
Make updates to the new candidate configuration or apply the
configuration to new devices and deployments outside of the original
config snapshot and, when you’re ready,
Push
Config
.
