Deploy Mode
Overwrite Select the Overwrite option, if you want to replace the existing running configuration on the
device, with the selected configuration.
This is the default option for the configuration deployment.
The configuration that you have selected is compared with the latest running configuration in the
Configuration Archive. (RME assumes that the latest running configuration in the archive is the
same as the configuration currently running on the device.)
The Overwrite mode ensures that the running configuration on the device is overwritten with the
selected configuration. This means, after the configuration is successfully deployed, the selected
configuration and the running configuration on the device are the same.
Overwrite mode supports Write2Run of the configuration only.
Merge Select the Merge option, if you want to add incremental configuration to the device.
The configuration that you have selected is deployed on to the device as is. This means, the
existing running configuration of the device is updated incrementally with the commands in the
selected configuration.
The selected running configuration is not compared with the running configuration in the
Configuration Archive.
We recommend that you use this option on newly deployed devices. This is because, the Merge
option effectively deploys the entire configuration from the archive, on to the device.
Merge mode supports both Write2Run and Write2Start of the configuration.
