SolarWinds® Network Configuration Manager
Network configuration management is the process of managing and monitoring your device configurations. SolarWinds® NCM automates this for multi-vendor networks to help you save time and ensure compliance.
Schedule automated backups of device configurations so you can roll back to a last-known-good version after a failed change.
Protect your network with reliable backups. NCM ensures device configurations are regularly saved and easily restored, minimizing downtime and ensuring business continuity. It also offers real-time monitoring and automated alerts, so you’re always informed about changes.
Run automated compliance audits for regulations like DISA STIG, PCI DSS, SOX, and HIPAA to find and fix violations faster.
Receive real-time alerts on configuration changes so you can quickly identify and revert unauthorized modifications.
Automate bulk deployment of standardized device configs to save time, reduce manual errors, and enforce operational consistency.
Go beyond configuration backups with practical workflows for compliance, change management, automation, device inventory, and network risk management.
A network configuration management tool automates the management of device configurations. Core tasks include device discovery, scheduling configuration backups, detecting and alerting on changes, comparing config versions to find differences, rolling back to previous versions, and auditing configs against compliance policies.
The five pillars of CM are typically configuration identification, configuration control, status accounting, verification and audit, and process management. These pillars provide a framework for maintaining the integrity and performance of IT systems and services.
It's important for three main reasons: stability, security, and compliance. Automating configuration management helps prevent outages caused by misconfigurations, secures devices against unauthorized changes, and provides the audit trails needed to prove compliance with regulations like HIPAA or PCI DSS.
