    The best method to downgrade the version of Fireware OS on your Firebox without losing all device configuration settings is to restore a saved backup image that was created for the device before the last Fireware OS upgrade. This ensures that the device's configurations are preserved as they were at the time of the backup, providing a seamless transition to the previous OS version without the need to reconfigure the device settings manually.

    To see a report of which Device Management users have made changes to the device configuration, you should connect to Report Manager or Dimension and view the Audit Trail report for your device.

These configurations ensure the log messages required for generating the Audit Trail report are collected and accessible.
