I've never found anything that hits all of my needs. The closest off the shelf thing I've ever found is the Network Control System from Tail-F ( http://www.tail-f.com/network-control-system/). We're using a custom built app that's been refined over the last decade and does a really nice job. It uses a very similar model of configuration management as Tail-F does but now quite the application. Just generating config isn't all that difficult. The hard part is pushing to the devices and working out what to do when on-box and off-box doesn't match. Good luck in your search, and if you find something really cool, be sure to post back! --chip On Tue, Mar 12, 2013 at 1:58 PM, Chip Marshall <chip () 2bithacker net> wrote:
Just curious what people are using for network configuration manangement systems. I'm guessing most places have something built in-house, but before starting down that road I figured it would be a good idea to see if people have any off-the-shelf systems they like. Some features I'd like to have: * Interface configs * Firewall filter configs * BGP session configs * User management * Support for multiple router and switch vendors (at least Juniper and Cisco) -- Chip Marshall <chip () 2bithacker net> http://2bithacker.net/
