5 Configuration Manager
Use Configuration Manager to load, configure, apply, and save a configuration on network function (NF) devices.
Associate Devices with Oracle SDM Cloud
While the NFs added to the Device Manager are entered into the Oracle® Session Delivery Management Cloud (Oracle SDM Cloud) inventory, these devices are not automatically managed. You must add the NF to Configuration Manager, informing Oracle SDM Cloud that the NF has been targeted for management. Upon being added to Configuration Manager, Oracle SDM Cloud allows configuration provisioning to the device, starts periodically polling the device for health metrics, and accepts traps or alarms from devices to manage and store in Fault Manager.
Now that the device(s) are associated, they are polled for health statistics and configurations can be loaded and managed for these device(s).
Manage Device Configurations
View Managed Devices
When you want to view the details about the configuration of a managed device, use the Devices object in Configuration Manager to display a list of managed devices with the corresponding configuration parameters.
Note:
For Oracle Enterprise products, the following procedure supports only the Enterprise Session Border Controller (ESBC) and the Enterprise Communications Broker (ECB).Search For a Device in Configuration Manager
- Expand the Configuration Manager slider and click Devices.
- Click Search.
The Search dialog box displays.
- Complete any of the following fields:
Name field The name of the configuration. IP Address field The device's IP address. Version drop-down list The software version running on the device configuration. Platform drop-down list The platform running on the device configuration. Product drop-down list The type of device associated with this configuration. - Click OK to create the search or Cancel to exit out and return to
the Managed Devices page.
Once a search is performed, the search criteria displays above the Managed Devices table.
- Click Show All to clear the search criteria and display all devices in the table.
Load the Configuration of a Local Device to Configure a Device
A copy of the configuration on a network function (NF) is loaded on the Oracle® Session Delivery Management Cloud (Oracle SDM Cloud) application database so that this configuration can be viewed, modified, and validated with minimal interaction with the NF. You must load the configuration to view the configuration and expand it in the navigation tree. After the configuration is loaded, you can check if the configuration copy in the database is current with the configuration version of the device. If the configuration version is not current, the Oracle SDM Cloud application retrieves the latest configuration from the device. This on-demand loading of a configuration ensures that the local copy of the configuration and the configuration on the device are always synchronized.

- The file is in csv format with a .csv as a file extension.
- The first row of the file is formatted properly. See "Generate a Spreadsheet Template" for more information.
- The file is associated with and properly matches an existing Oracle SDM Cloud offline config.
- The spreadsheet does not contain any blank rows.
- The spreadsheet contains details for no more than 20 devices.
- The values corresponding to each header comply with the expected format.
- No new columns may be added to the spreadsheet.
- The order of rows and columns in the template must match against the offline configuration that generated the template.
- The user myst have access to the device's name, primary
IP Address, secondary IP Address, nand Offline Configuration.
If any of the validations fail, the upload fails, displaying an error and the details are added ot the log file.
Once a spreadsheet is validated successfully, you are returned to the Offline Configuration Spreadsheets page with the new spreadsheet appearing in the table.
Manage Device Deployment Spreadsheets
You can access the spreadsheets generated by the Oracle® Session Delivery Management Cloud (Oracle SDM Cloud) to upload, edit, download, and delete.
- Users have read-only access to spreadsheets associated with devices to which they do not have access.
- Users are only able to access spreadsheets with Offline Configurations to which they have access.
- Users can only add devices to which they have access to spreadsheets to which they have access.
- Within spreadsheets, users are only allowed to modify device details to which they have access.
To manage device deployment spreadsheets, navigate to Configuration Manager, Configuration Tools, Offline Configurations. Select the Spreadsheets tab.
- If you generate a spreadsheet with all DVs set to the default value, you do not have to go to every device to configure it as they are updated automatically.
- If you add a DV set to the default value, the existing spreadsheets are updated automatically and remain in the 'configured' state.
- While either generating a spreadsheet with DVs or updating DVs, if the DVs are not all set to the default values, no automatic updates occur. You must edit and configure the spreadsheet for every device manually.

Manage Configuration Comparison Reports
Through the use of golden configurations, Oracle® Session Delivery Management Cloud (Oracle SDM Cloud) users can compare multiple configurations to generate, save, and download comparison reports.
Comparisons are performed between one source and one target at a time and the component type for each must match. Once a user enters all of the required input and clicks Apply, the configuration comparison occurs and the Oracle SDM Cloud displays a progress bar for 15 seconds. If a comparison report is generated and available in that time, the View Comparison Reports screen displays the report. If the report takes longer than 15 seconds to generate, the message "The comparison is taking a longer time, please refresh the temporary reports to check the report status after some time" displays and users are redirected to the Temporary Reports tab. Click the Refresh button to view the status of the comparison report.
Note:
If the Source Host or Target Host columns reference a device, users are able to see only the reports to which the user has device access. However, if there is no device reference, the report is visible to all users who have created or updated the reports.- Expand the Configuration Manager slider and
select Configuration Tools, Golden/Offline
