How do I check or retrieve configuration files for a device?

There are some stages you need to complete before you can check/retrieve the latest running/startup configuration for a device:

1. Click Main Menu and then Administration. Click Device Inventory.
2. On the Device Inventory page, navigate to and select the device you want to check. Click Modify at the bottom of the window.
3. This will open the Modify Devices window. Under the CLI Access section:
   1. select an access method in the Method dropdown field, either Telnet or SSH.
   2. select the Port on the device.
   3. enter the Username and Password that you would use to access the device itself. You might require a second password for admin or 'enable' rights.
   4. click OK.
4. Navigate to the Configuration Monitor dashboard of the selected device. In the Configuration Monitor Settings dashlet, click Edit Settings. This will open the Configuration Monitor Settings form. Once you have completed this form, click Done in the top right of the form to return to the Configuration Monitor dashboard.
5. Click Check Configuration Now via either the button in the top right of the dashlet, the dashlet Overflow Menu, or the device's Context Menu.
6. ENA will then retrieve the latest running/startup configuration from the device, and if it is different to the currently recorded version, it will update the device's Device Configurations dashlet table with the new file. If the number of configuration files in the table exceeds the specified Number of Archives listed in the device's Configuration Monitor Settings dashlet, the table will remove the oldest of these configuration files from the table.
