When you revert changes, you are replacing
settings in the current candidate configuration with settings from
another configuration. Reverting changes is useful when you want
to undo changes to multiple settings as a single operation instead
of manually reconfiguring each setting.
You can revert pending
changes that were made to the Panorama configuration since the last
commit. You can revert all pending changes on Panorama or select
specific device groups, templates, or template stacks. Panorama
provides the option to filter the pending changes by administrator
or location. The locations can be specific device groups, templates,
Collector Groups, Log Collectors, shared settings, or the Panorama
management server. If you saved a snapshot file for a candidate
configuration that is earlier than the current running configuration
(see
Save
and Export Panorama and Firewall Configurations), you can
also revert to that candidate configuration snapshot. Reverting
to a snapshot enables you to restore a candidate configuration that
existed before the last commit. Panorama automatically saves a new
version of the running configuration whenever you commit changes
and you can restore any of those versions.
Reverting a Panorama management server configuration requires a full commit and must be performed
by a
superuser. Full commits are required when
performing certain Panorama operations, such as reverting and loading a Panorama
configuration, and are not supported for custom Admin Role profiles.
