This morning, it seemed like one of my MAX BR1 devices did a factory reset. All IP settings were the default ones. It was still the same firmware however.
Of course, I could just roll back to the last working config of last week, but I would like to know the origin / root cause of this kind of “factory reset” in order to prevent it.
The device is mostly turned off and is only turned on when the mobile unit where it is installed is being used.
On the dashboard I see this:
Last Config Applied 5 hours 19 minutes ago (2024-03-18 10:13:44)
When I check the logs, I only see this:

Is there a way to retrieve who made which changes on the local device, as claimed in this log? I think however no changes were made. Would it be visible in the logs if there was a manual config reset on the device? Could it be a timing problem?
Is it possible to see the change (git-like) between two saved backup configs in InControl?
