Configuration Comparison Tool
Use XIA Configuration to compare the current configuration of your servers and devices with previous configurations to see changes, or to compare different servers and devices to see differences.
Baselines allow you to compare configuration to a "golden build" so you can determine when a Windows server, Active Directory object or any other item does not adhere to your organization's configuration policy.
Here are a few examples where item comparison is used:
-
Detect software installed on Windows Machines
-
Detect services added or removed from a Windows server
-
Detect unauthorized changes to an Active Directory schema
-
Detect databases added to a SQL instance
-
Detect changes to the code of a stored procedure

The following video demonstrates the item comparison feature. Firstly, security settings are changed on a server that has previously been scanned. The server is then scanned again and the latest version is compared with the previous version.
