Comparing the Configurations of Two Devices

To display the differences in HA-specific configurations between any two devices of the group:

Step 1 Choose Service Manager > Sync Report > Compare Config.

The Sync Report window appears.

Step 2 Choose the devices that you want to compare from the drop-down lists for Device1 and Device2.

Step 3 Click Compare. The Sync Report Config Diff Viewer appears. (See Figure 4-4 on page 4-9.)

Interpreting the Sync Report Config Diff Viewer

The Sync Report Config Diff Viewer displays that the date and time the diff is generated, and the configurations.

The Sync Report Config Diff Viewer has three panes:

•The left pane–Displays all the configlets that the configuration comprises. Click any folder to expand the tree and display descendant configlets. Choose any configlet to compare the required command between the configurations of the two devices.

•The center pane–Displays the configuration of Device 1.

•The right pane–Displays the configuration of Device 2.

The Sync Report Diff Viewer displays colored text that highlights the differences between the configlets in the two configurations, as described in Table 4-4:
