Network Configuration Automation — FAQ

What is network configuration automation?

It is the use of software to manage, standardize, and update device configurations across your network, replacing repetitive manual commands with reliable, repeatable workflows.

How does this help with compliance?

Automated checks and standardized baselines ensure devices align with policies and frameworks (e.g., CIS, NIST, HIPAA, Essential 8) and produce exportable evidence for auditors.

How do I automate configuration changes?

Use FirstWave’s opConfig module to execute changes and workflows at scale. Open‑AudIT provides the authoritative inventory and compliance context that guides which devices to target and how to validate outcomes.

Can Open‑AudIT help track configuration changes?

Yes. Open‑AudIT collects and stores configuration data from your network devices, giving teams visibility into the state of their infrastructure and the ability to generate compliance and inventory reports.
