Managing Network Device Configurations and Updates
Figure 250: Configuration change report for changes detected in an archived configuration
Ridgeline will combine into one report any differences detected in archive operations that occur within
a 10 hour time frame, to avoid generating many small reports. If you have a large number of devices
that you are archiving, you may want to schedule them in groups with a time lapse in between that is
sufficient for Ridgeline to save and email a completed report.
Configuration files that are larger than 1 megabyte cannot be analyzed with the automatic change
detection feature.

Device Configuration Management Log

In the Configuration Manager, you can view the status of the most recent configuration management
activity and its status—the date and time and result of the last activity (upload or download) for each
device. However, there may be times when you want to view a history of the configuration
management activities for a device, or for all devices.
Through the Ridgeline Configuration Management Activity Report, you can view a historical log of all
the configuration management activities performed through Ridgeline, showing the status of the
operation (whether it succeeded or failed) with additional information about the reason for the failure,
if appropriate.
