Understanding Change Audit Report
Change Audit report provides a summary and, when available, detailed record information.
Note When an application is unable to obtain information for Change Audit, N/A is used on the Change Audit
report.
The Change Audit report contains all change information provided by RME applications based on your
filter criteria. It contains the following fields.
Ta b l e 13-1 Change Audit Report
Field Description
Device Name Device Display Name as entered in Device and Credential Repository.
Click on the device name to launch the Device Center.
User Name Name of the user who performed the change. This is the name entered when the user logged in. It
can be the name under which the RME application is running, or the name using which the change
was performed on the device.
The User Name field may not always reflect the user name. The User Name is reflected only when:
• Config change was performed using RME.
• Config change was performed outside of RME, but the network has username based AAA
security model, wherein authentication is performed by a AAA server which could be
TACACS/RADIUS or local.
Application Name Name of the RME application involved in the network change. For example, Archive Mgmt,
ConfigEditor, CwConfig, etc.
Host Name Host name of the machine from which the user accessed the device or the host name of the RME
server. The Host name can contain IP address if the address does not resolve to a name.
Creation Time Date and time at which the application communicated the network change or when Change Audit
saw the change record.
Connection Mode Connection mode through which the change was made. For example, Telnet, SNMP, or console. The
mode is obtained by querying the device and if the query fails,
default or NA is shown.
Message Brief summary of the network change.
