Config Diff

Compare before-and-after router or switch configurations directly in the browser. The result view is optimized for Cisco-style and text-based network configs.

Use the ignore options when you want to focus on meaningful changes instead of formatting noise.

Inputs

  • Two configuration blocks (running, candidate, or backup)
  • Optional toggle for whitespace-only differences

Outputs

  • Side-by-side coloured diff
  • Summary counts of additions, removals, and changes

Use Cases

  • Pre-change review against the running config
  • Comparing two backups to find recent drift
  • Reviewing a teammate's proposed change

Limitations

  • Plain-text diff; no semantic understanding of vendor syntax
  • Output is for review only — does not push to devices
