Viewing Pending Configuration Updates

The configuration changes performed on devices through NSM (either in FIREWALL VIEW or by applying templates to device groups) need to be committed (so that the changes are locked), and then deployed on the devices to push the updates to the devices.

To view pending configurations

  1. Navigate to Manager view | Config Management > Commits page.

  2. Click PENDING CONFIGS at the top of the page.

  3. Click the item that has the OPERATIONAL STATUS as Editing.
  4. All the devices to which the configuration changes are applicable are displayed.
  5. Click the caret icon next to a device name to see the configuration changes that are awaiting commit and deploy.

The operations are listed, for example: add, update, and so on. Click the caret icon next to the listed operation to see the JSON script of the operation performed. To perform commit and deploy, refer to Committing and Deploying the Updates
