Synchronizing
Device

Configurations
ANM
provides

three

levels

of

synchronization.

You

can

choose

to

synchronize

from

the

device

to

ANM
as
follows:


From
the

chassis

level—Use

this

level

when
you
want

to

synchronize

Catalyst

6500
series

chassis
and
module

updates.

See

t

he

“Synchronizing

Chassis

Configurations”

section

on

page

5-67 .


From
the

ACE

module

level—Use

this

level

when

you

want
to

synchronize

changes

to

your

ACE

or
CSM
modules,

such

as

new

virtual

contexts.

See

the

“Synchronizing

Module

Configurations”
section
on

page

5-67 .


From
the

virtual

context

level

—Use

this

level

in

the

Admin

context

to

synchronize

all

current

and
new
vi

rtual

contexts

or

a

t

t

he

user

context

level

to

synchronize

a

spe

cific

user

context.

See

the
“Synchronizing
Virtual

Cont

ext

Configurations”

section

on

pa

ge

6-105 .
Caution
If
you
see
a

difference

in

device

information

between
what
ANM

displays

and

what
you

see

by

directly
accessing
the

device

through

the

CLI,

ANM

displays

the

data

that

is

the

least

accurate.

This

condition
can
occur

when

the

device

is

modified

out

side

of

ANM

by

using

the

CLI.

We

recommend

that

you
synchronize
the

network

devices

up

to

the

ANM

using

the

synchronization

option,

which

makes

the
ANM
data

more

accurate.
