List of Supported Devices for Configuration Management

[Giancarlo 53]

This is an entirely new capability offered by Domotz (April 2020). We will add more and more devices to the following list for which Domotz offers the possibility to:

• automatically back-up configuration
• manually back-up specific configuration
• compare across different versions
• getting alerted if something changes
• getting notified if running configuration is different from the saved one
• restore previous saved configuration
• upload and update the device with a new configuration

 

The following is the current list of supported devices for those capabilities:

 

Brand Brand	Model #s Tested Model #s Tested	Notes Notes
Cisco	IOS Series: Catalyst 2960 Catalyst 3560 Catalyst 3650 Catalyst 3750	In order to unlock this functionality, it requires an SSH user (with privilege 15)   SCP module should be enabled:             ip scp server enable   In order to benefit the auto-rollback on error capability, the "archive" functionality should be enabled:  archive path flash:archive write-memory
Cisco	SG Series	SSH and SNMP enabled.   admin account with privilege level 15.   The following lines in the configuration file:              - ip ssh password-auth   (mandatory)              - no logging console (recommended)
Luxul	XMS AMS SMBStaX	SSH and SNMP enabled. admin account with privilege level 15.
WatchGuard	Fireware OS	HTTPS (port 8080) is needed for recognition SSH and TFTP enabled Max configuration file size 5MB  We recommend having a separate ssh user for this feature since only 1 session per user is allowed at a time   A firewall rule must allow TFTP traffic from the Domotz agent host to the WatchGuard firewall
FortiNet	FortiOS	SSH and TFTP enabled Max configuration file size 5MB Hash for passwords and other encrypted data may be shown as diff when comparing configurations even if the password is the same https://forum.fortinet.com/tm.aspx?m=176962  A firewall rule must allow TFTP traffic from the Domotz agent host to the FortiGate device  https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/6.0.0/Handbook/690377/trivial-file-transfer-protocol-tftp-session-helper-tftp  The following configuration is needed for the correct interpretation of its configuration  configuraiton config system console     set output standard end

Few screenshots related to the Device Configuration Management:

 

Automatic and Manual Backup - Domotz automatically backup the configuration of the device and shows the history of the last configuration files. The backup is executed every 6 hours, and a new version is only saved (and showed) if it differs from the previous version.

 

Moreover, Domotz allows the manual backup of the configuration file. A new version is created, regardless if it differs or not from the previous saved version:

 

 

Through the same interface, it is possible to upload a new configuration file (which can then be applied to the device). Moreover, each saved configuration file can be locally downloaded.

 

Finally, user is also notified if there is a misalignment between the running and the startup (flash / bootflash) configuration.

 

Compare and Restore Configuration Files - Domotz allows the user to compare different saved versions of configuration files, and to restore a previously saved one:
