Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Deploying policy configuration across multiple security devices through hierarchical configuration templates is disclosed. In some embodiments, deploying policy configuration across multiple security devices through hierarchical configuration templates for configuring a plurality of security devices includes receiving at a first security device a hierarchy of templates from a central management server, in which the hierarchy of templates includes configuration information for a group of security devices, and in which the first security device is included in the group of security devices; and reconciling on the first security device's configuration information included in the hierarchy of templates and device specific configuration based on local configuration information, in which the first security device performs an object level reconciliation to maintain device configuration consistency.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A system for configuring a plurality of security devices, comprising: a processor configured to: receive a configuration input for a hierarchy of templates; and implement central configuration management for the plurality of security devices using the hierarchy of templates that facilitates device specific configuration based on local configuration information and template override of template based configuration information, wherein the implementing of t…
