Track & Audit - Configuration Change Tracking for Cisco Unified Communications
UPLINX Track & Audit is an enterprise grade, web-based configuration tracking and change management audit system for Cisco Unified Communications that automatically tracks configuration changes to enable version and revision control. With multiple administrators making modifications, Track & Audit lets you review the what, when and who of any modification. Track change events, receive alerts by email, view the original and new value to roll-back to the previous settings when problems occur.
Configuration Change History
Using a scheduler, Track & Audit generates configuration reports and comparison diff reports for all Cisco Unified Communications servers and stores them to a report repository. Reports can contain every configuration item of Cisco Voice with all settings. The Web interface allows you to easily define which configuration items are documented in the reports. Create specialized reports to track ongoing issues.
Track change events with email alerts
Critical configuration elements to be monitored can easily be defined on the web interface. Any CUCM, IMP or CUC configuration item such as device pools, CSS, route patterns, users, translations, and other system-relevant items such as trunks or voice gateways, can be automatically monitored and trigger email notifications to an administrator if they are changed.
With UPLINX Track & Audit, you can easily generate configuration and comparison reports that contain detailed data on configuration changes to Cisco Unified Communications – see who, what and when. These audit reports and email alerts contain audit data to easily track, log and review any changes. They tell you what the old value was and what it has been changed to.

Configuration reports that contain Who, What and When?
UPLINX Track & Audit creates audit reports that show configuration changes - who, what and when - in Cisco Unified Communications. Cisco Audit Logs can be automatically merged for increased depth and accuracy of changes found and to provide evidence of who made the configuration change and when it was made.
Scheduled Configuration Backups and Repository
UPLINX Track & Audit automatically generates and stores configuration reports for backup purposes in its report repository. You access it by web browser, via user authentication with access controls, to view generated reports by server or date.
Simplify your review process by searching for changes in reports and Cisco Audit logs, or specify a search for critical configuration changes.
Receive email alerts when backups have been completed or only when critical configuration changes have been made.
Change Reports
Audit reports show the time of change events, the before and after values, and who made the changes to the Cisco CUCM, CUC or IMP configurations. Configuration reports and change or diff audit reports are automatically generated to identify any change made.
Audit reports can be accessed via the Track & Audit Console by any web browser. Access can be controlled per user and limited to specific servers.
