Resyncing Devices

While viewing the Devices in either the Table or Diagram view, you are alerted (by the out-of-sync icon in the State column) that you have devices that are out-of-sync. This indicates that the running configuration for a specific device is not "in sync" with the saved device configuration, and should be
brought back into sync
to preserve the running configuration when the application is rebooted.
There are three ways to get the device back "into sync":
  • Using the
    Resync
    button provided in the Device Properties
  • Using the
    Schedule Manager
    to complete a config pull
  • Using the option in the
    Devices View right-click
    menu  
Any task that is not accessible to you from the right-click options listing (appears dimmed), automatically lets you know that you do not have the appropriate permissions to complete that task.
Make sure you refresh the Devices view after each resync is completed
.
Using the right-click menu to Resync,
  1. To bring a single device, or
    multiple devices configuration
    back into "sync", display the devices using the table layout.
  2. From the Navigation tree, display the listing of devices to determine if you have any devices out of sync, as indicated by the icon outofsync_iconin the
    State
    column.  
  3. Select the
    device
    , then right-click on the device to show the options in the right-click menu.
