What does a network configuration manager do?

A network configuration manager automates the backup, tracking, and auditing of device configurations. It keeps a versioned history of changes, alerts you when something changes, and lets you roll back quickly to a safe state.

How often does rConfig back up device configurations?

You can schedule backups as frequently as you need, including near real-time intervals for critical devices. rConfig stores every version so you can compare and restore without delays.

Does rConfig support multi-vendor environments?

Yes. rConfig supports major vendors like Cisco, Juniper, Fortinet, and Palo Alto, so you can manage heterogeneous environments from one place.

Can rConfig help with compliance audits?

Absolutely. rConfig provides audit trails, change attribution, and compliance reports that map to frameworks like NIS2, ISO, and NIST.

What integrations are available?

rConfig integrates with Zabbix, NetBox, HashiCorp Vault, ServiceNow, and Slack or Teams for monitoring, inventory sync, secrets management, and alerting.

How is rConfig priced?

rConfig offers flexible pricing with unlimited backups, so you can scale without worrying about per-device backup limits. Reach out to the team for a tailored quote.

Is there a free trial or demo?

Yes. You can start a free trial, book a demo, or speak with sales to find the right edition for your team.

Network configuration management

What is network configuration management?

Network configuration management is the process of backing up, tracking, and auditing device configurations across routers, switches, firewalls, and wireless infrastructure. A network configuration manager makes it automatic, reliable, and searchable.

Instead of chasing manual exports or spreadsheet baselines, rConfig continuously collects configurations, compares versions, and surfaces changes in real time. That means fewer outages, stronger security, and faster recovery when something goes wrong.

A single source of truth for every configuration

Every device change is captured, timestamped, and attributed to a user or automation job, giving your team clear accountability.

Why it matters for modern networks

Downtime from silent drift

Small, untracked changes pile up until a critical service fails or a recovery plan does not match reality.

Explore Change Monitoring

Security gaps and blind spots

Unapproved changes, weak credentials, and missed hardening steps create openings that attackers exploit.

Explore Security Tools

Audit and compliance pressure

Without version history and change attribution, proving compliance becomes a manual, high-risk scramble.

Use cases and real-world outcomes

From small IT teams to global enterprises, rConfig helps organizations maintain compliance and recover quickly from misconfigurations.

Regional hospital network

A healthcare IT team backs up 1,200 devices nightly and monitors change drift across critical care sites. When a firewall rule drifted, they rolled back in minutes and avoided a scheduled outage.

Global retail enterprise

A distributed operations team standardizes configurations across 3,000 stores. rConfig delivers compliance reporting for PCI audits and highlights deviations before peak shopping periods.

Managed service provider

An MSP manages 200 customers with multi-vendor networks. rConfig automates backups, feeds NetBox inventory, and pushes alerts to Slack so engineers resolve issues before clients notice.
