What Configuration Center is
Configuration Center is Windows software for managing network device configurations. It monitors configurations on demand or at scheduled times, backs them up, compares current or historical changes, applies updates to one or multiple devices, and restores saved configurations. Supported device protocols are Telnet, SSH, and SNMP versions 1, 2, and 3, with coverage intended for any vendor using those protocols. Configuration changes can trigger command execution, SNMP traps, or email notifications. Automatic backups can be scheduled for selected device pools, while reports and exports include text files and Windows SQL or Access ODBC archiving. Version 2.1 is offered as a 30-day trial download. The Workgroup plan costs 99.00 USD once for up to 10 network devices. Enterprise supports unlimited devices, with pricing shown as computer based. Listed Windows versions include 2016, 2019, 2022, 2025, 7, 8, 10, and 11.
