Resolve the Conflict Detected Status

CDO allows you to enable or disable conflict detection on each live device. If Conflict Detection is enabled and there was a change made to the device's configuration without using CDO, the device's configuration status will show Conflict Detected.

To resolve a "Conflict Detected" status, follow this procedure:

Procedure

Step 1

In the navigation bar, click Inventory.

Note	For an On-Prem Firewall Management Center, navigate Tools & Services > Firewall Management Center and select the FMC that is in Conflict Detected state and continue from Step 4.

Step 2

Click the Devices tab to locate your device.

Step 3

Click the appropriate device type tab.

Step 4

Select the device reporting the conflict and click Review Conflict in the details pane on the right.

Step 5

In the Device Sync page, compare the two configurations by reviewing the highlighted differences.

The panel labeled "Last Known Device Configuration" is the device configuration stored on CDO.
The panel labeled "Found on Device" is the configuration stored in the running configuration on the ASA.

Step 6

Resolve the conflict by selecting one of the following:

Accept Device changes: This will overwrite the configuration and any pending changes stored on CDO with the device's running configuration.

Note	As CDO does not support deploying changes to the Cisco IOS devices outside of the command line interface, your only choice for a Cisco IOS device will be to select Accept Without Review when resolving the conflict.

Reject Device Changes: This will overwrite the configuration stored on the device with the configuration stored on CDO.

Note	All configuration changes, rejected or accepted, are recorded in the change log.
