Can some of you all share how you handle Change Management on your
networks?
Everything from serious changes to something mundane like changing a
customer IP address.
I would hope there is some good open source tools for this purpose.
BTW, we already use "configuration management" tools like RANCID, but
I
am needing something that
people can use to log a change, who did it, why, when, etc, so its
accounted for BEFORE it happens.
I'm interested in this, as well. We use Device Authority for
configuration management but our change control process is a
bit...er...manual, i.e. fill out request form, sign it, hand it to
manager for approval, get form back from manager, make changes, sign
form, give form to someone else for verification, they sign the
form...you know how it goes. It works but it's sluggish and I'd prefer a
more streamlined approach.
