Overview

The ConfigSync interface enables you to work with configuration files. For example, use the ConfigSync interface to retrieve a configuration file list, roll up and save a specified configuration, install a configuration on a device, synchronize configuration setups, roll back a configuration, and upload or download a configuration.

    raised if the client credentials are not valid.

  • (IControl::IControl::Common::InvalidArgument) —

    raised if one of the arguments is invalid.

  • (IControl::IControl::Common::OperationFailed) —

    raised if an operation error occurs.

Options Hash (opts):

  • :passphrase (String) —

  • opts (Hash)

Options Hash (opts):
