Abstract
Various implementations disclosed herein provide a mechanism for determining that a configuration status of a compliant device is too far out-of-date, and subsequently bridging the configuration status of the compliant device to the up-to-date configuration data and instructions in response. In various implementations, determination of the configuration status of the compliant device is possible using a single request from the compliant device, which in turn reduces the amount of network traffic and utilization of network resources needed to update the compliant device with the up-to-date configuration data and instructions.
