Table 27: Additional Configuration States for Devices Running ScreenOS
5.1 and Later (continued)
Detail State
Details
Managed, Sync
Completion of an Update Device directive is suspended, waiting for the
Pending
device to reconnect.
This state occurs only for ScreenOS devices that have the Update When
Device Connects option selected during device update.
Changing the name, color, or NSM port on a device causes the configuration state to be
out of sync, even though the management system and device do not share these
parameters (these parameters are not transmitted to or from the device during an
update).
For details on all states, see "Viewing Device Status" on page 660.
You can view the connection and configuration status for each managed device in Device
Manager.
NSM automatically updates the device status and displays the state of each device in
the UI. To view device status, place your mouse cursor over the device name. A tooltip
shows the device name, device type and OS version, IP address, domain, the Attack Db
version if it is a Firewall\IDP device, and the connection and configuration states.
To manually verify the configuration status for devices :
For a single device—Right-click the device and select Check Config Sync Status.
For multiple devices—From the Device Manager launch pad, select Device config
Options > Check Config Sync Status. Select the devices for which you want to view
configuration status, then click OK.
NOTE: You can use the directive Check Config Sync Status from any
location in the NSM UI. (You do not need to select the Device Manager.)
The Log Viewer can help you identify event patterns on your network. To see patterns in
the Log Viewer, create a custom view using filters that display log entries based on specific
criteria. To set a column or cell filter, right-click the column or cell that you want to use
as the matching criteria and specify the value.
For example:
To track all events for a specific time period, create a filter on the timestamp column;
when applied, the filter displays only the log entries that meet the specified time period.
