This topic presumes that at least two device groups are at least partly configured in AirWave, each with saved
configurations. Perform the following steps to compare two existing device groups:
1. From the Groups > List page, select the Compare two groups link. Two drop-down menus appear.
2. Select the two groups to compare in the drop-down menus, and select Compare. The Compare page appears,
displaying some or many configuration categories. Figure 61 illustrates this page.

3. Note the following factors when using the Compare page:
n The Compare page can be very long or very abbreviated, depending on how many configurations the device
groups share or do not share.
n When a configuration differs between two groups, the setting is flagged in red text for the group on the right.
n The default setting of the Compare page is to highlight settings that differ between two groups.
n To display settings that are similar or identical between two device groups, select Show Similar Fields at
the top left of the page. The result may be a high volume of information.
n Select Hide Similar Fields to return to the default display, emphasizing configuration settings that differ
between two groups.
n You can change the configuration for either or both groups by selecting Edit in the corresponding column
heading. The appropriate configuration page appears.
n If you make and save changes to either or both groups, go back to the Groups > List page and select
Compare two groups. Select the same two groups again for updated information.
n Additional topics in this document describe the many fields that can appear on the Groups > List >
Compare page.
