Using Device Properties - Tasks

The Device Properties - Tasks dialog displays task and archived device data.

From this dialog you can add or remove device tasks, run a task immediately, restore a device to a previously archived configuration file, delete an archived configuration, modify configuration files, and import or export archived configuration files. In addition to these management capabilities, the Device Properties - Tasks dialog allows you to view and compare archived configuration files by accessing the WhatsConfigured Diff Viewer.

The top section of the dialog, WhatsConfigured tasks attached to this device, lists the tasks that are assigned to the device. Each task is listed by its name, description, and the time the task was last run.

The bottom section of the dialog, Archives saved for this device, lists each archived configuration file that has been obtained by a task or that has been imported, and is saved for the device. Each archived configuration file is listed by the time it was created, the task it was created by, the key associated with the archive, its description, and whether the Retain option is selected for the archive.
