Rancid is a free open source software used for network device configuration management. It works by keeping track of the changes made to the configuration of a network device and alerting the user when changes have been made. Rancid allows users to quickly detect and undo configuration changes, detect software or hardware problems, and generate configuration backups in a standard format. It supports a wide range of network devices, including routers, switches, and firewalls from many vendors.
