Comparing Configurations
When the ETEMS configuration differs from the appliance configuration, the appliance status is .
ETEMS provides a side-by-side comparison so you can see how the two configurations differ and
determine which is correct. After determining the correct configuration, you can either copy settings from
the appliance to ETEMS or push the ETEMS configuration to the appliance.
Table 29 The Appliances view summarizes the appliance configurations stored in
ETEMS
Field Description
Name A unique name that identifies an appliance to ETEMS.
Management IP The IP address assigned to the appliance’s management port. This is the
address that ETEMS uses to manage the appliance.
Remote IP The IP address assigned to the appliance’s remote port, which connects the
appliance to an untrusted network. This setting is displayed only for
appliance models on which the remote IP address is user-configurable.
Last Comm Attempt Indicates the date and time that ETEMS most recently communicated with
the appliance, whether to refresh status, perform a compare operation, push
configurations, or upgrade software. This information persists across ETEMS
sessions.
Sys Location The system location is configured on the SNMP tab in the Appliance editor.
It is an optional configuration item used to describe the location of the
appliance.
Model The hardware model of the EncrypTight appliance.
Software Revision The software version of the appliance. With a new appliance configuration,
the software version reflects the two-digit version selected in ETEMS. After
ETEMS has communicated with the appliance, this field displays the third
digit of the software version that is running on the appliance, when available.
For example, a new appliance may be added to ETEMS as an ETEP
running software version 1.4. After ETEMS communicates with the ETEP it
will display the third digit of the software version, such as 1.4.3. ETEMS
does not automatically reflect software updates between two digit software
versions because of differences in the feature sets (1.4 to 1.5, for example).
For feature update releases, you can update the software version in ETEMS
using the Multiple Configurations editor.
Date/Time
The appliance’s date and time.
